Bay Area Lyme Spotlight Series
“Every listen helps fund Lyme research.”
– Steve Ehrlich
Steve Ehrlich emigrated to the San Francisco Bay Area from South Africa in 1989. Chronic Lyme Disease cut short his career in the software industry, and he turned to writing music. He has released two contemporary jazz albums with his virtual band, The Inter Section. He spends his days on his sofa writing music with his doggie, Frankie, hitting play and paws when needed. The second jazz album is now available on all the streaming apps, and, like his first album, all the proceeds will be donated to Bay Area Lyme.
Steve tells us about the album:
“A year ago, I described how I created a jazz album from my sofa. If you bought or listened to it, thank you! The proceeds were donated to Bay Area Lyme. We ‘Lymies’ know that every day brings new challenges, so I thought, ‘What’s one more challenge?’ and started on another album. After somehow assembling 25 musicians from 10 countries to play on it, Going Places by my virtual band, The Inter Section, is now available on all the music apps. It’s a foot-tapper and smile-creator. Please share with friends and add to your playlist – every listen helps fund Lyme research.”
