Supporting live music and the artists who enrich our communities is at the heart of STEAM Fund’s mission, so it was a true pleasure to attend “I Have Eras Too,” an evening of original songs and stories by singer-songwriter and podcaster Cris Cirillo Spinner, our good friend and fellow Rotarian, delivered a heartfelt and memorable performance, beautifully supported by an outstanding ensemble: Steven Schwartz (guitar), Kenny Windheim (bass), Phil Nestor (drums), Clancy Tager (saxophone), and Charlie Bennett (cello).

Congratulations to Cris and the entire ensemble on a wonderful evening celebrating the power of music, storytelling, and community. Thank you for sharing your gifts and reminding us why supporting musicians, artists, and the venues where they perform is so important.
