Sal Belloise

For Sal Belloise songwriting isn't a hobby, it's his life. Live performance has been his life for three decades. Sharing the stage along the way with the likes of Roger McGuinn, Little Feat, Donovan, Dave Mason, Pure Prairie League, Robert Cray, Leon Russell, Jesse Collin Young, and recently the Wood & Wire Tour with Billy Dean, Richard Leigh and Gary Nicholson. Continually testing his songwriting skills by auditioning new songs before live audiences gives his songs instant trial by fire. "If your songs don't connect with the audience you'll know immediately by the long, lonely silence after the song ends " says Sal. "When you do connect it's a high that you want to repeat night after night." Thirteen songs that have been staples throughout the years for Sal were released in January of 2008 as "Nothing but Love." Thirteen more songs were release in September 2008 entitled "The South In Me." "I have enough songs to release an album every six months until the national budget balances, and that's what I plan on doing besides touring." The latest collection of songs were mastered by legendary LA engineer Ben Rodgers {Pink Floyd, Ambrosia, Ray Charles) who gave the recordings a "live performance" feel. Winning numerous awards for his songs and enjoying worldwide radio play makes Sal feel his life has been blessed . What's next? A music video of "Crazy Little Planet," a slanted comedic look at a planet in peril, is slated for release this October. Then tour, tour & record. www.myspace.com/SallBelloise
