The album True Love came about because of the untimely death of Broadway star Daniel McDonald on February 15, 2007 - the same day as his son Fosco's 6th birthday. Daniel and his wife Mujah came up with the idea of Daniel recording an album for posterity - a way to capture the voice that lit up Broadway for all time - for his family, fans and to inspire all of those who listen. True Love is about preservation of life at its best. A spouse or parent in the position of being faced with the loss of a husband and father bears the responsibility of preserving and relaying memories. McDonald died of brain cancer and the album, coming out at the end of May or beginning of June, promises to allow his legacy to live on through music.
