I love music and specifically RnB and Jazz of various forms. Melody makes for a good mood and happy soul. I have composed from my heart more so than the intellectual head unintentionally and desire by God's grace to continue to do. I have no desire to put a muffler on what the human mind and God's Spirit can and will do through us. Along with music, I have enjoyed an interesting writing career that's growing up to a level I never imagined. Too many folks are hooked on pain and problems and they seem to tear up their world that is starting to unfold wonderfully.
Tired of limited and timid living? Likewise! Self sabotage is silly and we've all likely done it and you do not have to do it again. Period.
So, I perform happy jazz and record it as well.
God's best and get that book in print, that song on CD, that poem on paper, that need for forgiveness delivered even at the risk of it being denied, and be who you are and get glad about it. "There Will Never Be Another You!"
Press on!

(Bass player, Doug Griffin, is brilliantly talented and if you listen to his bass lines on 'With the Flow' it has a song of its own while acting as a bass should. Dude is talented) -Glad to have him as friend and musical counterpart!-)
