In Remembrance CD to help USA Cares
Local talent contributes to CD dedicated to military families

Thaddeus Nauden Jr. wasn't sure it would come to this.
After countless hours in the studio, on the phone, on the computer and out of his mind at times, his project, three years in the making, is finished and ready for release.
In Remembrance, a CD collection of 10 songs plus a hidden bonus track is scheduled for national release Tuesday, appropriately enough three days before the anniversary of the events that gave impetus to the project.
The CD, which includes an array of local and national talent, is dedicated to the memory of those who "served and suffered" in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Proceeds benefit USA Cares, a non-profit agency that supports post-9/11 military families with money and advocacy.
"There were times that I thought this project would never get done," said Nauden, 36. "But I worked with some of the best up-and-coming artists and now we are eagerly awaiting its release."
Nauden is president of Stage Recordings & Publishing, which he created in 2002 and incorporated in May 2008.
In Remembrance is the company's first major project and one that Nauden hopes will raise $1 million for USA Cares.
"When Thaddeus first came to us, we were ecstatic," said retired Navy Commander Bill Nelson, executive director of USA Cares. "Our caseload at USA Cares has been going up, up up and like anyone else, we're struggling to keep up. Thaddeus came out of the clear blue Western New York skies and to have him tell us he wants to raise $1 million, it just humbles us."
