Why this name?
GFORCE came into being as a joke at first as we used to say "its all about the gear" thus GFORCE. In all reality we wanted to give glory to God and the name GFORCE took on that meaning.
Do you play live?
Although I am not longer an active member of GFORCE I still play on a pretty regular basis, mostly as a member of a worship team. I still continue to write songs and record keyboard tracks for other musician's projects.. Recently had the opportunity to record some keyboard tracks for a new artist named Shelli Stiverson.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The Internet has allowed way more access to everything. I especially like the fact that now you can connect with people all over the world.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Sure - as a songwriter!!
Band History:
Been playing music a LONG time for a lot of different folks - in a lot of different places..
Great fun!
Great fun!
Your influences?
I never limited myself to specific influences although I like some of the classic sounds of Steely Dan, Kansas, Billy Joel. I have no problem with today's sounds either. Love Relient K, Switchfoot. Big into movie soundtracks...
Favorite spot?
Anywhere in the Southwest - Phoenix, Arizona
Anything else...?
I would encourage people to take time to listen to my songs and give me their honest opinions. It really helps as an artist to get feedback.
I would love to hear from those of you overseas...
Always willing to co-write!!
