MOTIVATIONAL SINGER/SONGWRITER
Hello to my audience! I'm so grateful for you. I really hope you enjoy this music and I'm working hard to keep making more. I'm ready to take my music to a new level and am starting to shop myself to record labels who I hope can help me become all I'm destined to be. I pray with all my heart that a record company with good connections to radio, great producers and touring will give me the opportunity to prove myself, both in the studio, on stage and in songwriting. That is my dream. I don't care about money, just the chance to make great music , build an audience and forge friendships with great people who are serious about music. My main genres are Folk/Folk Rock, Country Rock/Blues and Christian Rock. Thank you for checking me out!!

Story behind the song
Written about the call I received from my dad telling me my mother was finally leaving him. even though we knew it was always looming, it was still a sad day.
Lyrics
The Call I got a call from my old man this morning He asked me how things were going with me But I heard something sad in his voice and I figured For the moment I’d just let it be I lied and told him everything was fine Got a job, fixed the car, and we’ve been having sunshine He said that was great that I had my feet on the ground But I still heard in his voice that sad distant sound I told him I was going to stay up here for the summer To be with some friends and work with the band But he didn’t seem thrilled and I said, “Dad, what’s wrong? You know maybe, I can lend a hand.” He said, “I was hoping you could come down here for the summer And maybe stay with me here at home ‘Cause your mother she’s going out west to her brother For I don’t know how long but she’s leaving me all alone.” I always knew somewhere in my mind But hoped and prayed that it didn’t come true That these things I was hearing right now over the phone Would never ever, ever happen to you And I thought things were getting better at home What about the trip you just took together I guess I must have been mistakenly wrong But I know now some things aren’t bound forever
