I am a christian singer/song writer. Though I feel sometimes just like a scribe. God gives me a song and I write it down. I've had friends christian and secular who talk about the miracle of "getting" a song. Music as a whole is a gift of God. Good secular music brings us very close to a spiritual experience. As a christian writer close is not enough. I have a living relation with a living God and I want my songs to Him to reflect the awe and joy that I know in Him.

If you are searching for eternal life you can find it in Jesus Christ.
Rom 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The Bible is reliable write me I'll tell you why.

Why this name?

I didn't chose it my father did lol

Do you play live?

I sing live to cd accompaniment by myself and others. I love it. I sang a duet with my daughter. A song about "The Lion the witch and the wardrobe" that I had written 25 years ago. I was nervous as anything. She was solid as a rock. The message of the song fit the message of the sermon so well that the pastor used it as a springboard to his thoughts. That has happened so many times I have lost count.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

The internet helps people share thier ideas quickly and to a huge audience, but I don't see how people can listen to stolen mp3s.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

If I didn't have to compromise my christian message.

Band History:

I became a christian in 1972 and started writing songs shortly after that. Those songs were in the form of written notes and mental melodies until about 2 years ago when after a long self teaching development I finally composed music that I could sing to.

If you can sing a song that you wrote I can probably help you get music for it.

Christian: Degarmo and Key, Kerry Livgren, Phil Keaggy, Denny Correl, Newsboys I don't sound like them but I like to listen to their music.
