English lyricist working with dozens of composers and artists
I am a lyricist working with many composers and artists around the world and most frequently with 2 guys, Juri Rosenfeld and Mark Ellis who, although their styles are entirely different, are both extremely talented as musicians and composers, as well as producers. Along with these two, with whom I have written more than 50 songs....I have been most fortunate to collaborate with so many others that the list is almost endless but two very talented ladies spring to mind: Dawn Diamond and Amy Caldwell, who have not only both composed for my words but have also both are possessed of beautiful voices and have sung many, many times on songs I have written. There is no ONE genre I write for, since a lyricist has to be able to write for ANY category and I do, but one thing I try to be always, is honest in my work because when there is integrity, there is a way to relate to the song and if occasionally I meander into the poetic, it is because I am and always have been, since the age of 13 years, a poet...but that doesn't mean everything I write is flowery or full of metaphors...as I say, I strive always to be real and of course, most importantly, to be as unique as possible.

Story behind the song
One of those song lyrics that just came to me out of the blue and could not wait to get it down on paper...
Lyrics
Shoshona by Dawn Sinclair V1 She’s not one to follow the herd For her, independence rates high No need for approval by others Nor time to be wondering why V2 When you're blessed with a name like Shoshona With a heritage that makes you proud When your mind’s locked into the future And the voice of your conscience is loud chorus You are Shoshona, the shining one And I will adore you from afar Shoshona, the shining one For what man ever could hope to catch such a breath-taking, love-making, earth-shaking shooting star sho sho sho sho na shoshona shines sho sho sho sho na shoshona shines shoshona shines V3 When ambition’s guiding your footsteps nimbly through this meandering life And your self-belief banishes demons it's so easy to fight the good fight chorus And all that I could ever hope for All that I could ever do Is shade my eyes to better see The shiny-ness of you sho sho sho sho na shoshona shines sho sho sho sho na shoshona shines shoshona shines
