Details:
Mid-Life Crisis is a popular seven piece West Michigan band which performs with a full horn section and features six different singers. Loving music from the 60's and 70's, they have opened up for many national bands such as America, Blood Sweat and Tears, Three Dog Night, Edgar Winter, Marshall Tucker Band and Eddie Money. They have a very large West Michigan following, and have been named "Best Band In Grand Rapids" two years in a row by the Grand Rapids Magazine. The band is comprised of Grand Rapids business and community leaders with diverse day jobs, including a doctor, lawyer, banker, secretary, plastics engineer, kitchen designer and polish butcher! Mid-Life Crisis is especially proud of their new, full-length album just released, titled "It's All Good." The album is all original music and features songs about their own mid-life crises!

âItâs All Goodâ is the first full-length, all originals album from the band Mid-Life Crisis. The album is a collection of 13 songs and stories that came from the bandâs middle age perspective on life. Family, friends, jobs, memoriesâ¦these mid-life stories have many highs and many lows. Produced by Michael Crittenden at Mackinaw Harvest Studios, the album has become a labor of love for all involved. Through the process of writing, producing and performing these songs, the band has come to the collective conclusion that, in the end, it is all good.

Song Bios
1. Holiday For Two â The album opens with this hard rocker about a crumbling relationship. The irony of this horn driven song is the upbeat tempo in contrast with the stark reality of a mid-life break up.
2. The Worry Song â What are the real crises of mid-life? That is what Steve and Betsy tried to answer with this tongue-in-cheek laundry list of worries that was written during a cross-country family RV trip. These simple, worried rhymes evolved into this big production that is now The Worry Song.
3. Healing Of Time â The mood of this song is set by the beautiful sounds of the Telecaster, while Tina reminds us of the hopefulness of the healing of time.
4. My Fatherâs Shoes â Sometimes a fatherâs influence does not become obvious until you become a parent yourselfâ¦thanks, Dad.
5. Completely Understanding â Completely Understanding is a lovely ballad about the mysterious complexities of relationships. Sometimes you love someone without completely understanding them.
6. Make A Change â Sometimes the changes in life are like a 3 ring circus. Like the chaotic changes in life, this song is a cacophony of horns, wailing guitars, timpani and time changes.
7. Tennessee Flyer â Everyone has been faced with the difficult decision of ending a relationship. Did the Tennessee Flyer make the right decision? You decide.
8. Silly Children â Timâs moving saxophone sets the tone for Silly Children, which offers the advice that whatever goes around, comes around.
9. Away â Dreams and reality blend together in this touching song that Terry wrote to try to capture the feeling of living with Alzheimerâs.
10. Song For Mom â How do you say goodbye to your Mom? Kevin expresses it perfectly in A Song For Mom, which was written during the last few weeks of his momâs life. He first performed the song for her, and then all too soon again at her funeral. This heart felt song is a tribute to all of our mothers.
11. Just A Woman â This lighthearted song is about the melancholy that all men feel when they have been dumped.
12. Through These Eyes â Tina and Greg teamed up to create this screaming rocker. A wall of sound with horns, guitar, keys and drums â this song is classic Mid-Life Crisis.
13. Missing You â It started out as an extended length instrumental guitar experiment, and had many different names during production. Dave brought it all together when he added the lyrics and gave it a name and heart felt theme.
