secondsamuel
I am a "one man band" with a Yammaha key board and an electric guitar. I program the keyboard and play along with my other instruments. I have been composing songs for 30 years. that's right I am 56 years old but Jesus has given me the ability to hold my own. I am not a learned musician, I have taught myself and I basically play by ear.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I started secondsamuel in 1998 at that time I performed at local churches and sang "Ole Time Gospel" at nursing homes. I also owned a christian book store and coffee shop where I performed regularly and invited other local christian bands to perform as well.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I sing and play in the praise band at my church "CORINTH BAPTIST CHURCH". When "singin for the King" every moment is special and I love doing it. There is nothing I like better.
Your musical influences
THIRD DAY, CHRIS TOMLIN, BIG DADDY WEEVE, MICHAEL W. SMITH, SWITCHFOOT, CASTING CROWNS, PHILIPS CRAIG & DEAN, HILLSONG, BOB SEAGAR, BOSTON, DOOBIE BROTHERS.
What equipment do you use?
SMALL MIXER, COMPUTER, HEADPHONES. WHEN I PERFORM PUBLICLY I DEPEND ON OTHERS FOR THE SOUND EQUIPMENT.
Anything else?
IF ANY ONE BE IN CHRIST HE IS A NEW CREATION, OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY. BEHOLD, ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW (II CORINTHIANS 5:17) I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE EVERYONE TO TRY MY MUSIC. IT IS RELATIVE TO TODAY'S MIXED CULTURE AND IT MAKES SENSE
