Fred Litwin, president, NorthernBlues Music:

I started NorthernBlues Music in July 2000. The catalyst to starting a blues label was the purchase of a Grit Laskin CD, over the internet in 1996, while stationed in Singapore for Intel Corporation. To make a long story short, I was quite taken by Grit's CD (clear vocals interesting lyrics), and I sent Grit an e-mail telling him how impressed I was. To my surprise, I got a response from Grit within two days, and that started an exchange.
