Amelie Poulin would have loved John McGrew. So would Jeff Buckley. McGrew makes songs for mix tapes, red wine, and skeletons. A soundtrack to a life. This book, that film. Trumpets, guitars, piano. And a voice that will break hearts and start fires. "381 Sessions" was recorded in John's apartment, 381 Park Place, Brooklyn NY, in 2007. The first four tracks are originals. The fifth track is McGrew's composition of Mary Zimmerman's poem 'Kingfisher' from her award winning play, "Metamorphoses". McGrew's 'Kingfisher' was originally performed by Ridgwood High School's (NJ) theatre department.
