With no end in sight to the three-week-old strike, The Scarecrow Report has had no choice but to bring in a professional mediator. And it has hired one of the best in the business – acclaimed singer-songwriter Bruce Hornsby.
A three-time Grammy Award winner, the best-selling pianist has over thirty years of experience in the labour relations field, having resolved work stoppages across the continental U.S. and reached negotiated agreements at such leading edge firms as Home Depot, the Ford Motor company, and Joe’s Speedy-Quick Piano Tuners.
Hornsby is expected to meet with both parties on Wednesday to discuss the current impasse, and play songs from his new album.
When reached for comment at his home in Williamsburg, Virginia, Hornsby said, “Is Don Henley going to be there? I hate that bastard Don Henley.”
