Title - The Distant Thunder
Artist - The Distant Thunder

For those unaware, the most famous anonymous singer in America Joe Cerisano (TSO, Silver Condor) and hit songwriter Marc Blatte (the Four Tops, Celine Dion, Kenny Rogers, Bruce Springsteen) have teamed up for The Distant Thunder.

This duo not only shared responsibility for “Hands Across America” but also were critical to the success of the most iconic commercials - GE, Army, Navy, Sprite, Miller - you have ever heard. Now they have come together and created an amazing slice of Americana with standout tracks like “Healing Hand” and the latest single, “I’d Rather Be Dancing.”

Blatte has penned the Grammy nominated Top 40 song “When She Was My Girl” by the Four Tops as well as songs by Celine Dion and Kenny Rogers. “When She Was My Girl” will also be making an appearance on the brand-new Bruce Springsteen covers album, Only the Strong Survive, due out in November.

As Blatte states, “Bruce singing my tune "When She Was My Girl," which was a hit by The Four Tops forty years ago, is nothing short of miraculous. I’ve always been a huge fan of his. Early in both of our careers, we spent some time, just Bruce and I, watching The Honeymooners at the Power Station, yucking it up like a bunch of knuckleheads!”

1. Healing Hand
2. I’d Rather Be Dancing With You
3. Like Father Like Son
4. Reasons
5. Distant Thunder
6. Put the Gun Down
7. Ain’t That What Praying’s for
8. Looking Through the Eyes of Love
9. Breakthrough
10. The Bridge Is Burning

The Distant Thunder self-titled album, which was released November 18th, 2022, opens on the rambunctious Americana of Healing Hand and the smooth, dance floor swirl of I’d Rather Be Dancing With You, and they are followed by the gritty Like Father Like Son, the melodic Reasons and then we are given the beautifully crafted, titular Distant Thunder.

On an album where the duo strip it all down for a real rootsy American sound, filled with emotion and heart wrenching lyrics, they continue onward with all that and more within Put The Gun Down, which is itself backed by the infectious foot tapper Ain’t That What Praying’s For, the languishing Looking Through The Eyes of Love, the album rounding out on the mid-tempo tale of love within Breakthrough, coming to a close on a throaty The Bridge Is Burning.
