Episode 26 – Charlie McCord (Billy Vera – Son)

Thanks to social media I was able to reconnect with Charlie McCord’s father. I first meet Charlie’s father in the Green Room of The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Vanna was a guest and his dad was promoting his hit song “At This Moment”. Charlie is the son of Billy Vera, one the most amazing singers I know, with a career that expands over 60 yrs. Like his father Charlie is a singer and musician, had a band with his brother and also produces for video productions. I really enjoyed learning about Charlie’s music career and what it’s like being the son of a Hollywood musical legend.

However it wasn’t until years later that she told me about her father, a well known Canadian singer songwriter. As the podcast grew and I was thinking of guest I Googled her father, Marty Butler and listened to his music. Well, his daughter Kimberly has a great story of blended families, pharmaceutical sales, single motherhood, real-estate, a new home and a deep love for her father, his music and songs, including Fly Little White Dove Fly that he wrote for The Bells. Marty also gave piano lessons to Anne Murray. Marty’s death from Aids in 1996 lead Kimberley on the journey to become deeply involved in Aids charity work. #Trinilopez #thescptres
