CLEVELAND, Ohio — There’s a great deal of pandemic-induced physical distance between Jeff Daniels and his musical audience these days.
But the Emmy Award-winning and Tony Award-nominated actor and singer-songwriter is hoping his new album, “Alive and Well Enough,” brings everyone a little bit closer.
“I just led with the songwriting and also the celebration of the sound of just one acoustic guitar,” Daniels, 65, says by phone from his home in Chelsea, Mich., where he also operates the Purple Rose Theatre. “This wasn’t about bringing in a bunch of other musicians. We’re not adding harmonies or anything.
