More about the Grammy-nominated album:
Glier recorded all of the vocals for 'The Next Right Thing' in his home studio, utilizing his favorite Apple hardware and software.
Little did he know that his engineering work would land him the industry's highest honor. Glier brought the stems for his new work to Carriage House Studios in Stamford, CT where the rest of the album was recorded, mixed and mastered. Upon the CDs release in January 2011, Glier hit the road, literally, racking up over 250 shows, visiting over 30 states, 50 towns tirelessly showcasing his music and compassion.
In nearly every city Glier visits while on tour, he spends his pre-show afternoons visiting HIV Shelters, VA Hospitals, and/or Children's Hospitals, going from room-to-room and performing for patients. It is this sense of greater purpose that places Glier in a rare spot among today's young pop stars - and his older brother might be one of the strongest reasons behind this philosophy of 'giving' -- Glier's complex family relationships have long shaped his musical journey, with his brother considered to be his greatest influence. "My brother is autistic and non-verbal. I learned to communicate with words better once I realized how to communicate to someone without them."
Glier uses his tours to raise awareness for causes that are close to his heart. For example, this past November he embarked on his 'Food For Thought' tour, teaming up with CLIF Bar and raising five thousand pounds of food, which was donated to a regional Food Bank.
