Following the tragedies of September 11, the nation and especially New Yorkers have pulled together in a support of solidarity to honor the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
This spring, pop/folk artist, Suzanne Vega and fellow members of the Greenwich Village Songwriter's Exchange will release a tribute CD titled Vigil, with songs written about those events. As executive producer, Suzanne has compiled several songs by the members, as well as contributed her own song, "It Hit Home."
"Vigil is a natural response to try and bring together the people who want to know how New York is doing after the attacks, and those who were writing about life in New York City, as we all attempted to return to normal." says Suzanne Vega.
Founded by folk pioneer Jack Hardy, the Greenwich Village Songwriter's Exchange has provided local New York songwriters a weekly workshop where its members share new songs and exchange ideas.
So far, the list of contributing songwriters are: Suzanne Vega, Tim Robinson, Jack Hardy, Wendy Beckerman, Bob Hillman, Jon Albrink, Ina May Wool, Dawn Landes, Brian Rose, Richard Julian, Jill Gerwitz, Amy Marie Keller, Andy Germank, Noam, Weinstein and Richard Meyer. Tim Robinson also contributes his artwork to Vigil.
All proceeds from Vigil will go to the Jeff Hardy Memorial Fund. Jeff Hardy was a local Greenwich Village musician who was working as a chef in the World Trade center-based law firm of Cantor Fitzgerald on September 11. Jeff was also the younger brother of Jack Hardy, Greenwich Village Songwriter's Exchange founder and Fast Folk Editor.
