Jerry Garcia as a Sideman
featuring:
Jerry Garcia * Mark Karan * Jorma Kaukonen * Matthew Kelly * Jerry Miller * David Nelson * Bob Weir
First coming to the attention of Northern California music fans as co-writer of "Home to Dixie"
on the debut album by Kingfish, Cutler has logged many hours in the studio with a wide variety
of artists including The Big Wu, Jewel, Paul Collins, Mystery Tramps, and Spike 1000. Grateful Dead "extended family" member and legendary San Francisco singer/songwriter Bill Cutler unveils "Crossing the Line", his three-decades-in-the-making solo record.
"Crossing the Line" is really a songwriter's record", says Cutler. "I learned a lot from listening to
Neil Young and Jackson Browne. They both use musicians in very specific ways in order to serve
the song. That made a lasting impression on me. " Tapping the talents of many great musicians,
all of whom trusted Cutler to take the lead, this is one of the few modern records thast does just what its title explicitly states: it exceeds expectations and blows away preconceived notions.
Writing and recording "Crossing the Line" has been a long journey for Cutler. "It was a big challenge seeing this project through, but I feel it represents some of my best work as a songwriter," Cutler says. "I can't think of another album like this. "
