From Amazon.com: 'The 13 tracks on this album are a part of the fabric of his love affair with music throughout his life. It contains some of the Songbooks most romantic songs, re-arranged and recorded by some of Broadway's finest musicians.'

After winning the 2010 Metrostar Challenge, T. Oliver Reid brought his winning show to the Metropolitan for a couple of runs earlier this year, and then went on to perform at the Gardenia Room in Los Angeles.
Of his performance at the Metropolitan Room, Stephen Holden of the New York Times wrote: "Vulnerability is a quality that most male singers measure out in teaspoons. But for T. Oliver Reid, it isn't a discreetly added emotional flavoring to a love song; it is its essence."
"To witness Mr. Reid infuse popular standards with the immediacy and intensity of diary entries... was to observe an unfaltering emotional high-wire act. While tiptoeing on his high wire, Mr. Reid repeatedly shot arrows into the hearts of songs, where they lodged, quivering."
I've known and been a fan of T. Oliver's talent for over a decade. He is the real deal.
Where artistry, talent and technique collide - that's where T. Oliver Reid lives.
