Wills lawyer and professional songwriter Les Kotzer has teamed up with Lewis Manne and Wendy Watson of Manimal Music, who have written numerous songs for television including the music for the hit TV show Degrassi, to create several new songs including 'These Are Our Heroes' performed by five time Juno award winner and Grammy nominee Alan Frew the lead singer of Glass Tiger. "We wrote the song to pay tribute to our heroes".

Also involved in the song development is Greg Kavanagh who has worked with some of the most successful recording artists in history including Jennifer Warnes, Emmy-Lou Harris, Aretha Franklin, Linda Ronstadt, The Spinners, Judy Collins, Gordon Lightfoot, Holly Cole and Chrissie Hynde. Greg plays on and produced 'You're A Bird, I'm a Tree', 'I'm On A Ship', 'Let Me Introduce You To My House' and 'I'll Carry You'.

Currently we are looking for the right vocalist to record one or several of our songs. If you would like to audition to record one of the new songs please email an audio of your voice and your resume to les@leskotzer.com.
