The American singer-songwriter from Texas is known to millions of music fans around the world for his classic hits, include 'Sailing', 'Ride Like The Wind' (covered by Saxon and East Side Beat) and the Oscar winning 'Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)' from the hit movie 'Arthur' starring Dudley Moore.

From the release of his first album in 1980, Cross has remained a unique artist, replete with that confounding blend of sensitivity, determination and conviction of his own artistry.
