...is a singer, songwriter and registered nurse. This is his musical experiment where he hopes to expose and maybe change our attitudes about end of life. Steve Price has been a registered nurse for 25 years. His experiences have inspired him to write his first CD “Awake”.
Prior to this project Steve had never written a song. In 2007, the DOOR of INSPIRATION opened and in quick succession he had 12 songs about the inherent and imposed dilemmas of aging, illness and dying.
High-end backup talent by Mary McCaslin, Jim Lewin, Richard Bryant, Charlie Wallace, John Weed and Bill Sullivan.
The music is timely and will surely stimulate discussion since health care is once again on the political agenda.
No matter where you are in the debate you have to admit there are problems with the many uninsured, shameful condition of nursing homes and the profiteering at the expense of our old and sick citizens.
These ballads try to capture some of the sweetness and the sadness.We often see an expensive, cruel drama unfold for so many at the end of life causing much suffering.
The songs in this project strike deep at the heart of the issues of every day health care in America. It is time to take a good look at our system and welcome the aging process into our culture.
Years from now, Steve predicts, people will look back and wonder; “what were they thinking?”
Live well today!
Steve
