Been a musician since high school. Played in several bands throughout the years in the islands.
Then, oneday, left everything, bought a one way ticket to the west coast - and travelled to the east coast. What an adventure!
Came back home to the islands in 2004, and started writing again.
Left the islands again in 2008, and I'm travelling again..writing and collaborating with other songwriters and musicians.
My talent is putting words to music and creating the melodies.Band/artist history
Many to list here...Again, since I was in high school through my late 20's, there has been many artists and bands I've connected with. I'm grateful to have had the experience though.Have you performed in front of an audience?I don't enjoy playing live anymore. It scares me. When I did, with the current bands that I played in back in the day, the bands would perform my songs live, and it was such an honor to see their followers singing back my words. A great blessing. I would love that feeling again but, from behind the scenes as I'm not wanting the spotlight anymore.
Your musical influences
Songwriters like Roger troutman [Shirley Murdock songs], Kenneth Edmonds, Diane Warren, Smokey Robinson, Aretha, Jim Steinman, Marvin Gaye, Earth Wind & Fire, And the list goes on...I love most music that are old skool R&B/Soul - But then, as a writer, I've branched out in many different genres as my musical tastes have changed over the years.What equipment do you use?
Cubebase LE, Sony acid pro 7, Cakewalk 5, and a few others...Anything else?
Are you listening?
