Folk/Country music and an excellent backup group.
Me (Jimmy Morgan): I have been playing guitar and singing since I was nine years old. My inspiration to play guitar and sing as a child was my family. The great support and love from my family has inspired me to write songs that come from the heart. My current CD "Jimmy Morgan, Life - Beginning to End" reflects my love for my wife, of twenty-one years, Thurma; my four children Jason, Jennifer, Kevin, and Emily; and my Mother, Lyla. Joel Martin: My friend and former neighbor, now has a house with a serious recording studio. Joel has been playing music for almost 34 years, he started taking piano lessons when he was six. He has studied music in college, and is proficient at many instruments. His forte is composing and arranging. Jason Stark: A dear friend of the family and an excellent volcalist, musician, and songwriter. Plays guitar, harmonica, brass horns, chello, and keyboard. He can play just about anything he picks-up. Elle Clark: Another friend with a beautiful voice. Elle is also a Musician and Songwriter. I'm so glad to have her as a part of the band.

Story behind the song
An essay put to music. I had an essay assignment to use the words "standing in the rain" somewhere in the essay. I came up with the story of an old man in a park.
Lyrics
The old man was lying on the park bench, it was a cold and windy day. The name of the old man was not know and where he came from no one could say. Seemed he'd always been in the park, nearly all his life. He must of come from some where. But there was no one who cared. Oh, just walk on by. It's not your life. You've gotta go there's no time. Oh, just walk on by. The cold wind was becoming, more than he could stand. He knew he must find some shelter, from the wind and now the rain. He knew of a covered door way, about a block and a half a-way. Upon his feeble legs to the shelter, he set out on his way. Oh, just walk on by. It's not your life. You've gotta go there's no time. Oh, just walk on by. And now as the night came, there seemed a ray of hope. The old man he saw some car lights, so he waved his arms for their help. The car just raced past him, they splashed a puddle in his face. The driver of the car just laughed, and left him standing there in the rain. Oh, just walk on by. It's not your life. You've gotta go there's no time. Oh, just walk on by. You've gotta go there's no time. Oh, just walk on by.
