Her song "My Favorite Year," has become a standard recorded by such celebrated performers as Michael Feinstein, Margaret Whiting, and Cleo Laine. In addition, she has co-written and produced songs for 16 animated features for Universal Studios and the Land Before Time television series, created the score for Dangerous Beauty with Amanda McBroom, (produced at the Pasadena Playhouse,) and collaborated with lyricist Sheilah Rae for the off-Broadway musical, I Married Wyatt Earp.

SAN FRANCISCO: ANE BRUN AT YOSHI'S

Norwegian singer-songwriter Ane Brun will appear atYOSHI'S (1330 Fillmore Street, San Francisco, CA - 415-655-5600) on Wednesday, February 19th at 8:00 pm. She will be joined by special guest Linnea Olsson. The recording of Ane Brun's new album, It All Starts With One would have been underway as early as 2010, were it not for Peter Gabriel and Ani DiFranco inviting Ane on tour. Much to the frustration of her fast-growing fan base, accumulated over the previous three studio album and periods of hard touring, Ane Brun's own album had to wait. This, however, turned out to be an advantageous move with that year spent on the world tour giving Ane time to write additional songs and allowing for further work on those that already existed. During those magical recording days in Stockholm last spring, no one in the artist's inner circle had any doubt that the time was right, everything just fell into place. There is a $29 cover.
