Description

The podcast's first ever repeat guest, Steven Sater (Tony/Grammy/Olivier/Lortel/Drama Desk Award-Winning Awesome Guy) rejoins us to discuss his latest project, the grammy nominated concept album called Some Lovers, a collaboration with friend Burt Bacharach. This episode is pulled from a brand new podcast that I started with co-host Heather Vickery called 'Was It Chance?', all about how embracing fear and how taking intentional risk helps shape people's creative successes. More information about the new podcast via bpn.fm/wasitchance, or find it wherever you're listening to this podcast now!

And now, here's the description from the 'Was It Chance?' feed:

A chance encounter with Burt Bacharach led Steven Sater to collaborate on a decade-long project to produce a full length musical concept album featuring some of the industry's biggest artists. Now 93, Burt hasn't written anything for the stage since Promises, Promises in 1968. Steven felt drawn to Burt, this project, and their mission to explore what it's like to write love songs for couples after the "newness" of the relationships are over, and they've settled into their routines. This album is a must-listen, and this podcast episode is ... an even muster-listener.
