Putting up acoustic covers to popular songs.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Been around since 1994. I was 12 when I heard my first Christian Rap CD, and I found out that I could do what "they" did, so I figured, "I'll give it a shot and see where it leads". Since then, my musical tastes have changed and as I grew, I found my singing voice was a great avenue for God to touch peoples hearts. So far I've only done a few sets at local coffee houses, and I play and sing regularly in my church. Whoever will have me, I'm glad to be there, lol.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play often at my church, Temple of Praise. I absolutely love doing live ministering and can't imagine being anywhere else.
Your musical influences
At the moment I'm very influenced by acoustic-based artists like Brandon Heath, Shawn McDonald, and Josh Wilson.
What equipment do you use?
Taylor 214CE, Roland VS-880 digital Studio, Studio Mic, and an Olympus LS-11 field recorder
Anything else?
Feel free to contact me about anything, be it just talking about music, God, or if you like what you hear, booking.
