"mute" is a solo deal I put together while in Isle 6 as a way to write some music for web sites as theme songs. But it became an outlet for my music, muted. All songs photos, and art by Michael A. Jones are for sale by HereX Entertainment Group. (Except photos, words, and art for Isle 6, they belong to their respective owners and we all appreciate your allowing us to use them).
You can check out my old band I played bass in. Isle 6 is a Classic Rock band that had a good run of many years. Til the Sun Comes Up is a great modern party song with a great classic rock vib.
Started out playing Alto Saxophone. Then I stole my brothers Ozzy tape and heard RANDY RHOADS at 13yoa and life changed direction. Playing guitar became my passion. I’d played in a few cover bands but not out much until I landed playing bass for Isle 6. I took on the difficult job of learning bass and the songs needed to gig in only a few weeks. We played everywhere for about 5 years. Played in some other bands but never had the same experience as Isle 6. Started writing theme songs cause I cant sing worth a lick. So paron the vocals. When Isle 6 disbanded I’d played in a few other bands but never had the success I’d found in Isle 6. I returned to schooling and was excepted into the university where I became a double major in English and Psychology. Do to exhaustion of carrying a full time printing job, two children, writing a few ebooks, and a string of failed relationships, I dropped out of the university. As COVID hit and I was unable to do much! I began playing more and more and eventually writing a few songs I actually liked. That led me to open my own entertainment group HereX.
If you’re a vocalist for hire, please contact HereX. All of my songs are for sale by HereX Entertainment Group. Please contact HereX Entertainment Group for more details.

I’d like to thank everyone who has supported my music over the years. I'd really like to thank those that didn't! I'd given up if you'd loved me and I'd never had the heartaches and set backs that grounded me, (or almost put me in the ground) and pushed me to move on.
