Performing for good.
The show is an effort of MusiCares, an arm of The Recording Acadamy that provides assistance for music people during challenging times. And members of the film & TV music community—from composers to musicians to singers to those involved in preparing, recording and mixing—are suffering from the financial and emotional impact of COVID-19. Singer and songwriter Mary Gauthier says, “MusiCares saves lives, and I am forever grateful that the music community has this resource to turn to in times of need.”


John Stamos hosts the Name That TV Tune segment.

Join the celebration.
From the people whose scores and songs transport, inspire, uplift, entertain, and—from time-to-time—help get us through some of our most difficult challenges, this online special celebrates some of the most glorious moments of film and TV music with heart and humor.

Charity donations to MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund are not required, but encouraged throughout the show.

Enjoy. And as always feel free to share this post.

As a Sr. Writer at T. Rowe Price, I work with a group of the best copywriters around. We belong to the broader creative team within Enterprise Creative, a part of Corporate Marketing Services. _____________________________________________ A long and winding road: My path to T. Rowe Price was more twisted than Fidelity’s green line. With scholarship in hand, I left Kansas at 18 to study theatre in New York. When my soap opera paychecks stopped coming from CBS and started coming from the show’s sponsor, Proctor & Gamble, I discovered the power of advertising and switched careers. Over the years I’ve owned an ad agency in San Francisco; worked for Norman Lear on All in the Family, Good Times, Sanford and Son, and the rest of his hit shows; and as a member of Directors Guild of America, I directed Desi Arnaz in his last television appearance— we remained friends until his death. In 1988 I began freelancing full time didn’t look back. In January 2012 my rep at Boss Group called and said, “I know you don’t want to commute and writing for the financial industry isn’t high on your wish list, but I have a gig with T. Rowe Price in Owings Mills…” I was a contractor for eight months, drank the corporate Kool-Aid, became a TRP associate that August, and today I find myself smiling more often than not.
