Thank God It's Toby Highlights - A podcast by Shout Radio - Venerdì

Bruce Sudano is a singer, songwriter, and storyteller whose music draws deeply from a lifetime of love, heartache, struggle, and spirituality. A true New Yorker at heart, Bruce formed his first band at age 13 and was performing in clubs not long after, quickly immersing himself in the vibrant local music scene.He first made waves on the charts in 1969 with "Ball of Fire," co-written with Tommy James, followed by the 1970 hit "Tighter, Tighter" with his band Alive N Kickin’, which opened for acts like Chicago and Frank Zappa. In 1977, Bruce co-founded the band Brooklyn Dreams, which signed with Millennium Records and soon found success collaborating with Donna Summer. Together, they co-wrote the chart-topping hit “Bad Girls” and appeared on her Top 5 single “Heaven Knows.” Bruce and Donna also began a personal relationship, eventually marrying.Over the decades, Sudano has continued to evolve as a solo artist. His latest album, Talkin’ Ugly Truth, Tellin’ Pretty Lies, showcases his signature blend of soul, rhythm, and lyrical introspection. The album features the anthemic “Make The World Go Away,” produced by hitmaker Ken Lewis, and the heartfelt duet “Two Bleeding Hearts” with legendary singer/songwriter Valerie Simpson.Highlights from Toby Gribben's Friday afternoon show on Shout Radio.
