News

Stevie Wonder, Diana Krall, Sheryl Crow and Lyle Lovett were just a few of the artists on hand at the White House earlier this month to help celebrate the work of songwriters Burt Bacharach and Hal David.  President Obama honored Bacharach and David as "two kings of songwriting" on May 9 when they were awarded the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song.  The two have written dozens of hits including "I'll Never Fall in Love Again", "I Say a Little Prayer" and "A House is Not a Home."  PBS will air the all-star White House concert tonight (May 21) at 9pm ET.
