Moker Jarrett ASCAP with Lucky Stiff, a classic rock group from Jacksonville, Florida has released Ready to Fly a new CD under Run to the Sun Publishing/ASCAP.
Moker Jarrett grew up in the coastal area of Northeast Florida. His dad was a coach and one of his coaching buddies gave Moker his nickname at around age six. Obviously it stuck like glue. The folk masses at St. Paul's were among his first guitar/vocal conquests and that has turned into a lifetime of writing and performing songs. In addition to his dad, his granny and mom were big influences of his outlook on life. My wife gives me a huge dose of support to continue writing at this level. Country has become a favorite genre of Moker's and his main co-writer, Dale Peaden from Panama City Florida shares 13 of the 17 cuts on the recently released CD "Cut This". This team shares a mix of uptempos and heartfelt tunes and is sure to be on their way to garnering a string of country hits. You'll go away humming the melodies and chorus lines and these songs draw you in and make you feel like you're right there in the story. Still performing at local festivals Moker's group "Moker Jarrett with Lucky Stiff"a Jacksonville Florida based power trio is a collection of veteran performers (Moker Jarrett from Jacksonville, guitars, vocals, & songwriter, Jim Rohl,from Cincinnatti drums, Billy Smith, from Philadelphia, bass guitar, & vocals) commited to having a good time, writing cuttable original material for the country and pop/rock markets, and stayin' true to our roots of music with a groove. Music should make your body move!

Story behind the song
Kim had a great hook and lyrical direction and I am at the worktape stage of coming up with music and melody that does it justice. Life makes it's impression on us, hopefully it's the good stuff we hold on to in our memories...
Lyrics
There's More to Life my folks always told me, life is what you make it don't know 'bout you, at times I lose my way once in a while I find myself fakin' it just to make it through another day I work so hard 2 jobs day then night doin' what I gotta do, is sure a sacrifice makin' ends meet these days, feels like a fight do you feel that way too, like things just ain't right but there's more to life than the money that we make there's more to life than take, take, take when I held our newborn baby and I looked down at my wife I think it was then that I first realized there's more to life yeah there's more to life yeah times I've lost sight of the good stuff ya know the times that take your breath away a mornin' chill, a whippoorwill, a family o' little ducks perfect sunset, a coolin' rain after a hard day when the lake looks like a mirror, smooth as glass when Bobby came runnin' up with that flappin' fish, asked if it was a bass knowin' that when I got home there's someone I can hold that fills what's missin' in my soul cos there's more to life than the money that we make there's more to life than take, take, take when I held our first grandkid between me and my wife I once again realized there's more to life there's so much more to life When we take our last breath and we see it's not over yet and all that mattered was love and faith and all that counted was the love, the love we gave yeah there's more to life than the money that we make there's more to life than take, take, take and when I get old and there ain't much life left I hope there's alot of things that I just can't forget yeah there's more to life there's more to life there's so much more to life I've always heard it's what you make it (c) 2009 Kim Kime/Moker Jarrett
