Pennsylvania Singer-Songwriter Beth McDonald has been writing music and lyrics for over 30 years. Her diverse catalog consists of Jazz, Gospel, Contemporary, Children's, and Country genres. Alan Dale of DC's New Legacy Jazz Band wrote that her songs are deeply personal, profoundly universal, and uniquely captivating, possessing a poignancy that can only arise from authenticity. Most of Beth's recordings are engineered by Chris Biondo, without whom the world may never have heard the voice of one of Beth's inspirations, the late Eva Cassidy.
"Cutie" is an upbeat and fun instrumental tune that is simply meant to make the listener smile. Would make a great theme song or background music for film or television. Instrumental, Jazz, Dixieland
"Don't" is about that person you can't live with or without. "Don't let me go now, but don't let me stay..." It captures the indecisiveness that you feel when you can't seem to move on from someone and you don't know if you even want to or not. It could be used in a romantic film or television show. Female Vocals, Singer/Songwriter, Pop Singer-Songwriter
This song encourages people to not only find hope but to bring hope to others in dark situations. And it is a reminder that we need to be kind to one another and consider each other's perspectives. Female Vocals, Spiritual, Contemporary Gospel
"Moon Song" is a story told from the perspective of a child who befriends the moon. Would work well as part of a bedtime scene in film or television. Female Vocals, Jazz, Lounge Jazz Piano
"Take Me Away" expresses a longing to be with someone, wherever that might lead. It features a simple piano accompaniment with a trumpet solo and has a sort of subtle intensity. Would be great in a movie or television show, either in a lounge setting or between scenes to build upon screen chemistry. Female Vocals, Jazz, Lounge Jazz Vocals
