"Mud in your eye"
The project was produced by Reuther and Tom Hagen and recorded at The Tom Hagen Studio in Saranac, MI. The CD features the work of some fine West Michigan musicians, including Early Braggs, “Sweet Willie” Singleton, Tom Hagen, Cherie Lynn, Mike Lutley and Bill Vitts, along with guest vocal performances by both Mary Rademacher and Cherie Lynn.
Reuther, who counts Bennett, Sinatra, Darrin and Cole as some of his vocal musical influences sings in a clear baritone with always intelligible lyrics. From tender ballads to swinging grooves, this is a singer in command of his craft.
