There's no substitute for being onstage in front of an audience that doesn't like you. Mr. Sullivan hasn't found too many audiences like that lately. Fellow crooner Harry Connick Jr. found a recent set in Austin inspiring enough to jump onstage. But don't peg him as a mere bubble of the lounge trend. His next record just might be rock 'n' roll.
Genres are a bore, and categories are a bore.
I'm only interested in singing and producing the song in a meaningful way. Tell us what you think.
