Lampkin Music Group Presents The Andrew Brent/Jimmy Glenn Songbook

LMG will be presenting Andrew and Jimmy in their debut in Chicago. While we were sitting in Andrew's living room and listening to their collection of songs, I was excited to hear comedy, drama and good musical/lyrical lines in their songs. In deciding to go forward, we thought it'll be great to bring in, as an extra added treat to the audiences, two gifted singers LMG has been thrilled to work with, Cheryl and Justin.

Don't miss an evening of fresh, original songs beginning with the toe-tapping tribute "Hello Chicago, Hello!" followed by a variety of new music such as the heartfelt ballads "Dear Oprah," "Letting Go," and "Rainbow Chaser", "Outside Lookin' In", "November Wind," "Still You're On My Mind," and "Man of My Dreams".

ANDREW BRENT - Andrew has spent a lifetime of involvement with theatrical productions and musical compositions, vocal arrangements, musical direction, acting, singing, and audio and video production. CDs include: Strange Romance in 1997, and Grow in 2010. His musical, The Fortune Cookie, was produced late 2000's in South Bend. His composition of the score was greatly inspired by Jimmy Glenn, his writing partner of over 28 years. The Fortune Cookie was also Andrew's directorial debut. As an actor/singer he has appeared as lead and ensemble roles in Forum, Mame, Auntie Mame, The Fantasticks, The World Goes Round, Jesus Christ Superstar, Godspell, and most recently Evita and Grey Gardens.

JIMMY GLENN - In a career spanning thirty years, performing from New York to Florida, Tennessee to Texas, Jimmy has shared his passion with many an audience. Along the way he appeared in a series of television commercials and did some minor work in several major motion pictures. In the mid-90's, he discovered that he had a talent for writing, other than songs, and put to paper several children's books and short stories, while also co-writing the musical "The Fortune Cookie" with Andrew. Jimmy Glenn looks forward to many more writing projects and creative endeavors, which will employ his personal experiences in music, art and life

Cheryl Szucsits credits include Tony and Tina's Wedding, Joseph, Secret Garden, Damn Yankees, Man of La Mancha and the cabaret shows "All about Eydie" and "Borrowed Time: Nancy LaMott Tribute.

JUSTIN WILLIAMS has performed the lead role of Seymour in "Little Shop of Horrors" , Stromboli in "Geppetto and Son," Robbie Hart in "The Wedding Singer", Warren Sheffield in the "Meet Me in St. Louis" and appeared in the concert version of "Kiss Me Kate" at Notre Dame. Justin made his concert debut at Palias Royale in Oct. 2010, and his Chicago debut earlier this April.
