The Californer/10096879

NEW YORK - Californer -- Kathy Sanborn is renowned as a singer/composer/lyricist/producer/arranger, and in her latest release, "America the Beautiful," she displays her talents once again as a top-notch vocalist and arranger. The 2015 American Songwriting Award winner reinvents, with her usual heartfelt style, the classic written by Katharine Lee Bates (words) and Samuel A. Ward (music). First published in 1910, "America the Beautiful" has become one of the most popular American patriotic songs, and was considered as a candidate for the national anthem.

With the world undergoing an unprecedented time, Sanborn wanted to create her own vocal interpretation of one of America's most beloved patriotic songs. And just in time for what some are saying is the most important election in the nation's history, "America the Beautiful" is reborn.

Featuring the talents of Vahagn Stepanyan on piano and Wayne Ricci on trumpet, "America the Beautiful" will renew your affection for this cherished classic. Produced by Matthew Shell, this modern version of the famous song will inspire a new generation of freedom-loving people around the globe.
