About a friend who did a favor for me and told me to pay it forward, and I did something charitable for someone the next day

Ethan Shapiro, aka Mr. E, is simple guy with a passionate drive for making music.
His wide array of musical talents include: songwriting, playing guitar, bass, drums and keyboards, producing, engineering, mixing and mastering.
"Music has always been close to my soul. From the incredible songwriting and musicianship of Rush, to the Shakespearian and operatic-like songwriting and rock hard power of Springsteen; to the celestial jams of the Grateful Dead and Phish, and the positive and faith promoting messages of modern Christian Rock bands like MercyMe, Casting Crowns, Third Day and the Newsboys."
Now, with my own studio, 3PeaksRecordingStudio.com, I am looking to pour that passion into not only my own songs, but help others develop their own passion for music and songwriting by making high quality, affordable and well produced recordings for my clients.
Please listen for free here and be sure to go to my Facebook artist page and hit the like button.
Songs can be downloaded here as well for between $.50 and $.99 per song.
Buy the whole set, over 30 songs for $13.99!
If you love a song so much and can't afford to buy it, email me and I will email you a free mp3!

Why this name?
Mr. E for Ethan , and it sounds like "mystery"
Do you play live?
I love to perform, and with my new CD "All Things Possible" out, I'm looking for opportunities to perform: festivals, churches, restaurants, cafes, bookstores, or even private concerts in the intimate atmosphere of people's homes.
With my band, I'd like to have outdoor concerts at my house (TBA).

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It adds extra work for the artist, but hopefully allows us to reach a wider audience and makes it much easier to have others hear new recordings without necessarily making a CD.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I 've signed a deal with Tate Music Group, a very pleasant Gospel music label and publisher to work with. They remastered and redesigned my current CD "All Things Possible" available at TateMusicGroup.com. I had to invest about $2,000 which I'll get back if I can sell 2500 copies.
The CD is also available at Itunes.

Your influences?
I was raised on Springsteen and Rush, got heavily into the Grateful Dead (they just blew the door open on what music could be), and now am mostly into Christian contemporary music like MercyMe (I can only Imagine), Casting Crowns (If we are the Body), Newsboys, 3rd Day, and many more.
Favorite spot?
I really love Southern Utah for all the natural beauty. Cedar Breaks, Bryce Canyon, Zion NP, Snow Canyon....to many awesome palces to name, and sometimes even to visit!!
