“Good News for People Everywhere”
Rick Pisano
From Dawn of a Waking Man
Orleans Street Music (2008)

Boston-based singer-songwriter-producer Rick Pisano repudiates his transgressions and exalts the satisfaction of being saved on “Good News for People Everywhere,” his first gospel song.
Although he is best known for singing the blues, Pisano collaborates on this selection with an African American gospel choir and musicians who sound straight outta Nashville. Pisano shouts like Canada’s Danny Brooks (“Soulsville”), while the choristers lend tight, strong harmonies, especially on the coda.
Pisano’s debut album Dawn of a Waking Man was named by the Noise, a popular Boston music magazine, as one of the 10 best independently produced albums of the year.
