12-song CD, the Corey Songwriting Group offers a wide selection of country
and western songs created by Sharomar Music, Corey Productions, and a
distinguished list of contributing writers, performers, arrangers, and
producers.
The Songwriters — The Coreys and Dennis Kahler Tales of the New West is the result of over a decade of C & W songwriting by the four Coreys: Arthur and Margie, and Sharon and Alton. Art and Alton Corey are brothers who have been writing songs for over 25 years, and during most of that time co-writing several tunes with Alton’s wife, Sharon, who also has an extensive canon of her own poetry. Art’s wife, Margie, also an accomplished writer of poems and verses, joined the song writing effort in 1993, making more contributions to the group’s growing body of material. Their most notable effort to date was the 1994 indie hit "Dark Desert Sky" recorded by Bill Scarbrough. Dennis Kahler, who wrote or co-wrote the lyrics to three of the songs on this CD (#1, 2, and 6) is a long-time friend and co-writer who has compiled a significant list of songwriting credits on his own and currently is the President of the Alabama Songwriters Association. Dennis has often collaborated with the Coreys several times over the past four years. The Coreys can be contacted at sharomarmusic@aol.com or (626) 858-9274. Dennis can be reached at (256) 352-4873. The Singer — Buddy Jewell Buddy Jewell is an accomplished singer/songwriter of pop, rock, and country ballads who has paid his dues singing in dance halls and honky tonks from Dallas to Denver. A native Arkansan, Buddy has made a significant impact as a vocalist in Nashville, where he has become one of the most recognizable names and voices in the "Music City" recording community. He has recorded a wide array of demonstrational tunes for many of the music industry’s top songwriters, including Don Schlitz, Carol Bayer Sager, Steve Seskin, Mark D. Sanders, and the godfather of country tunesmiths, Harlan Howard. Buddy’s rich and passionate tenor voice and commanding stage presence have earned him high marks as a singer who can dramatize a song in the tradition of the great western balladeers. Buddy’s voice was featured on two of comedian Bill Engvall’s hit singles/videos: "I’m a Cowboy" and "Hollywood Indian Guide," and he has opened in concert for Alabama, as well as appeared on TNN’s "Crook & Chase. Buddy’s vocal performances have drawn tremendous acclaim this Spring on the "Nashville Star" singer/songwriter contest airing weekly on Saturday nights on the USA Channel. Buddy Jewell can be contacted at his email address: buddy@buddyjewell.com or at his website address: www.buddyjewell.com Contributing Arrangers and Performers Also contributing as producers on Tales of the New West are Denny Martin, Steven Cooper, and Ed Tree, each of whom offered vital creative concepts as well as virtuoso playing on the specific songs they arranged (Denny arranged songs 3 & 8; Steven arranged song 10, and Ed arranged song 12).
