Art Phillips has two Emmy awards for work he did in the 1980s on the TV show Santa Barbara, and he has scored over 1,500 hours of original music for broadcast TV series, films, and documentaries. In the mid 1970s, he moved to LA and became a top session guitarist working with artists such as Barry Manilow, Minnie Riperton, Teena Marie, and the group that drew him away from Erie when he was just 19 — The Lettermen.
Thanks to the JPT Foundation for sponsoring the Erie Music History podcast. The goal of the foundation is to provide education scholarships to grade school-age children as well as annual giving to local organizations and charities. The foundation has a large hall that hosts bingo four days a week and is available for rentals, and it is also the home of this podcast’s monthly music night, which is the first Tuesday of the month from 6-9.
Many thanks to the folks (like Angelo Phillips!) who have donated to the podcast. If you would like to help out, Venmo me at @Dan-Schell-6.
