Hello, I thought I would share this song I wrote from the new musical, Jesse James: DEAD OR ALIVE. The show is based on the life of infamous Western outlaw Jesse James. The music has a rock/Americana style along with a traditional musical theater feel. Thank you for listening!

Brian,
Very lively and a wild west sound. Is that you singing? Great voice and recording. This would be an opening song I assume. Will it be performed with piano or do you intend to orchestrate it?
Thanks so much. So glad you like it. I am playing the piano on the recording but the singer is a Broadway actor, Robert Koutras. A very talented performer: http://www.robertkoutras.com/ I have done a few readings of the show with a small orchestra but would ideally like a real pit orchestra when I have an actual production. Here are a few more songs from the show for fun: https://soundcloud.com/emlaproductions/sets/jesse-james-dead-or-alive Thanks again!
Very nicely done Brian--to me it works on all levels just as it is, and was a joy to listen to.
Great job--thanks for posting!

Thanks Bob! So glad you enjoyed the piece. Hopefully I can get more performances soon.
Best,
Brian
