The Maker Of All Music a.k.a The Maker is obviously very talented and has an excellent ear for instrumentation and music production. Born and raised in MOTOWN(Detroit, MI) with deep music roots in Louisiana(Home of Jazz) and Montgomery, Alabama(Home of Blues), The Maker has performed and is associated with groups like The Winans, Anita Baker, The Enchantments, BT Express, Kashif, Sweet Pea(singer with Bonnie Red), The Tramps, Blue Magic, Yung Joc(Bad Boy Records), Trick Trick(Shady Records)etc.
His major influences included Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis and most influential, Louis Armstrong. Quincy Jones, Kashif and David Sanborn are additional strong influences that helped make The Maker musically who he is today.
Music is a natural vibration that flows out of The Makers brain. No matter what music he is prompted to create, be it Bluegrass, Hip Hop, Meditation or Blues. Some have called him “The Son of the Morning” - God's Original Right Hand Entertainer & Musician, thus the name "The Maker".
What better music producer could afford the prominent and dominant name “The Maker of All Music”. Who is anyone to chain you to the boundaries of genre classification? Music has a formula, from Country to Rock, The Maker knows that formula. He can create any type of music needed for film scores to concert performance mixes and masters.
The Maker has been producing music one way or another for over 35 years and has developed skills in digital music production, analog and instruments like the trumpet and keyboard. He started, as a young child playing the drums and moved quickly into learning the trumpet.
The Maker is currently a Sound Engineer for the “Tennessee Shindig” - a major Country Western Live Theatre in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee seating 500+ a day. The theatre needed a commercial done for a local radio station and requested that The Maker produce the music and mix in the voices. In 2006, he produced a single performed by Ebony and Ivory called “Keep It Gangsta” ranking #7 on the Hip Hop Charts of American Idol Underground, the online version of TV’s hit show American Idol. He also has a volume set of Jazz music being released by Album. It is The Days Collection, Volumes 1- of which Saturday Music is the Debut album. (Available Now!).
