Last night he hosted a book signing event for charity with “The CHANGE” self-empowerment book series vol. 16.) The gala book signing at the popular Mark De Alwis Salon benefited Broadway Cares / Equity Fights Aids (BC/EFA), the nation’s’ leading industry-based HIV/AIDS fundraising and grant making organization.
The evening was produced by celebrity hair designer Mark De Alwis and directed by celebrity/concert photographer Billy Hess. DJ Ian Ford supplied the music with every song played written by Greenly, including the new state anthem of Virginia. Also played for the crowd was his newest dance tune – “Common Ground” — re-mixed by world famous DJ Tony Moran and co-written by Gil Polk and Sam Stevens. The song reflects Mike’s belief that “we should each find ways to use our individual gifts to improve the world.” The new Grammy hopeful is being released by the legendary label, TRAX Records,
The crowd was comprised of authors, friends, family, fans and celebrities.
