#611 - Janet McMahan

Janet McMahan is a special guest on The Paul Leslie Hour!

Janet McMahan is an uplifting presence, as you’ll soon experience in this interview on The Paul Leslie Hour. A pianist, songwriter and performing artist, she is a producer of everything from musical works, audio books and dramatic works. She’s toured as Roy Orbison’s keyboard player.

As a musician she’s worked as a session keyboard player and vocalist. McMahan’s in-studio credits include Dolly Parton, Steve Winwood, John Denver and Carrie Underwood to name just a few. As a songwriter, her songs have been recorded by Lynn Anderson, Sonny James, Frank Sinatra, Jr. and Big Bird. How’s that for variety? Janet McMahan has published more than 1,500 songs.

However, Janet McMahan gets her greatest satisfaction performing for elderly people at nursing homes. Her enthusiasm is a great source of joy and her raison d’être.

I’m so pleased to present this interview with a woman who understands that music is a gift to be shared, that is to be enjoyed as a communal experience. Janet McMahan is on The Paul Leslie Hour, a humbling and inspiring experience!
