Hi! This Musically Mr M and I am pleased to be celebrating 6 years as member of the SoundClick Community. I feel that as SoundClick has grown, so have we. We appreciate everyone's support, the thousands of listeners and the many fan's and friends that visit us here at SoundClick. My music is a collage of all the influences that have created me and my sound. Musically Mr M is also a production think tank for several other artist including The Stingerz Band And Revue (R&B, Beach Music and Country), Dorothy Mitchell (Gospel Artist), Coletta Edwards (Nu-Gospel Artist) and others. I simply want to provide your ears with quality music from the heart and soul. So, come along and take a listen.......with Musically Mr M.
I've been doing something musical since age 5. I am a multi -instrumentalist who writes, arranges and produces a wide range of musical styles from bluegrass (seriously) to Hip-Hop. Good music has no boundaries and my audiences have been somewhat eclectic, musician's musicians. I've done a lot of regional studio work, club gigs, even the circus, beach music-you name it, I've done it. Now, I'm simply bridging the gap and blurring the boundaries of what good music should be. I am trying to evoke a return of the tasteful, laid-back, In-The Pocket grooves that seems to missing in a lot of Genre-driven music today. Outside the radar of the record industry, there are many of us out here remember and perpetuate the music of our youth. The sensitivity and creativity in words and songs are what shape the music we set out to produce.
Yes I play live quite a bit regionally. We are located in Northeastern NC and play the Virginia Area, DC, and the Carolinas. I like the exposure of being on stage and listeners hearing your voice, your soul and interacting with you through your music.
Diverse and many. : ) Motown Artist, Stax Sounds, Steve Cropper, Otis Redding, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Larry Carlton, Earl Klugh, Bob James, Keb Mo', B.B. King----Just too many influences to name.
I use an array of stuff including-
Guitars and Basses (Fender Stratocasters, Telecasters, Les Pauls, Samicks, JB Player) I like odd-ball, off brand guitars. They have lot's more charecter.
Keyboards (Roland XP 80, Alpha Juno S-2 S-50; Ensoniq KT-88, ESQ-1; Yamaha W7)
Tama Drums
Recording Gear-Tascam Digital/Analog Recorders, Alesis and Behringer Effects
Amps-Fender, Line 6 and Carr- guitar, SWR- Bass, and Yorkville Amps; Keyboards
For people who are in search of "Good Music" (whatever that is) that touches the soul and still evokes deep feeling, this is the ticket. I keep it simple and in the pocket so take a listen and tell me what you think.
I am available projects/collaborations of all types. I love to gig on smaller venues. (Lot more intimate surroundings) If you'd like to hear me live, contact me at :
