Loretta Hagen - Sundown Till Dawn
"2008 has been good to Loretta Hagen. Twelve self-penned songs for that big, Nashville-style voice to ride on.
Many songs are inspirational and seem directed inward for the singer as well as for the listener. Some, like
"Mirror, Mirror," are so brilliantly conceived lyrically, they seemed destined for one of the Nashville biggies to
pick up and have a monster hit. "Mirror, mirror, can you bring love back, mirror, mirror, try / Layered teardrops
blur my reflection, mirror, mirror, lie." Of course, if justice prevails, and the buying public will take to a li'l ol' gal
from New Jersey, Loretta will have the big hit (or two) herself."
Richard Cuccaro, Acoustic Live in NYC and Beyond Magazine

The title song from Loretta Hagen's latest CD , "Sundown Till Dawn", is her most personal recording to date.  After her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease five years ago, Loretta and her family became her caregivers, taking turns staying in their mom's home round the clock and dealing with the changes and challenges that come with such a terrible disease. It has been an emotional roller coaster for her family and Loretta's song paints a clear picture of how her mom has suffered, describing a typical day in her life.

The song, Sundown Till Dawn, will be included on a soundtrack in a film by Backlight Productions due to be released in Spring of 2010 called "Ten Mountains, Ten Years", about a group of mountain climbers called The Regulars who are climbing ten mountains in ten years to raise awareness for Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard are contributing songs to the soundtrack as well. Loretta's hopes are that her song will help raise awareness and funds for research so that someday, there will no longer be a disease that robs loved ones of their dignity and personality.
 Since the early nineties, Loretta Hagen has been writing and performing music that has earned rave reviews for her rich vocals and poignant songwriting. With a style that mixes country, rock and folk music, you could find her performing solo or with her band Down To The Wire, consisiting of Gary Hagen, Debby Maggiulli, Teri Avella, Dave Barry and Sara Gallmann.
