This is a MUST listen episode if there ever has been one. Sally Stevens has a voice you heard on many of the most beloved film scores and TV shows ever made. She has recorded and/or toured with the biggest stars including Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Andy Williams, Burt Bacharach, Ray Conniff, Dean Martin and many more. Sally has worked with Hollywood's greatest film composers like John Williams, Alan Sylvestri, Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Danny Elfman and so many more, where her voice can be heard in hundreds of films such as The Sound of Music, Forrest Gump, Jumanji, Beetlejuice, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Guardians of the Galaxy 2 and Deadpool 2. She also sang on the great variety shows of the 60s and 70s like The Danny Kaye Show, Red Skeleton Show and the Carol Burnett show.
If you have watched an episode of The Simpsons, you have heard Sally, her daughter (Susie Stevens-Logan) and Danny Elfman singing "The Simpsons" as the show theme begins.
In this unforgettable episode, Sally and I walk through her 60 year career as an actress, vocalist, Hollywood contractor, songwriter and trusted partner to directors like Steven Spielberg. Sally has many great stories to tell about things like touring with Nat King Cole and the racism the African-American singers faced in the early 60s. We cover a lot of ground but merely scratch the surface.
To learn more about the wonderful Sally Stevens and her legendary career, pick up a copy of Sally's memoir! The book is schedule to release on (or around) August 15, 2022. You can get updates at https://www.sallystevenswriter.com/
