Hi Brothers and Sisters worldwide! I'm CR and The Maccabee Project is the Music Project where, with the blessing and grace of God, I exercise sonic mayhem and share it with all who will listen.
I'm a Hard Rockin' Guitarist/Singer/Songwriter with deep Blues and Southern Rock Roots. For good measure, the Lord blessed me with some good ol' Detroit High Energy Rock style to add to the mix.
The Maccabee Project is based out of Roanoke, Virginia and I have had the help of former bandmates Sharon Payne (Drums) and John Yates (Bass) in putting much of this music together. I have also had the help of internet collaborators such as Pete Laite of New Jersy who shared his vast musical skills on "Red Horse."Band/artist history
The Maccabee Project was born in early June, 2003 after the Breakup of our former Christian Rock Band, "Cross Omega."Have you performed in front of an audience?I play for Church outreaches, Festivals, Coffee Houses, etc. I'm also known to frequent the local Pro Blues Jam. I love to play live. I love it even more when God is able touch someone through the music He gives me.
Your musical influences
Cream era Eric Clapton, Johnny Winter, Gary Moore, Alvin Lee, Ted Nugent, Rick Derringer, early ZZ Top, etc.

THIS IS SOME AWESOME SOUNDING BLUES ROCK, POWERFUL GUITARS AND GRITTY BLUESY VOCALS AND THE GREAT MESSAGE OF JESUS, WHAT COULD BE BETTER?
WE ALREADY HAD YOU ON OUR "ECLECTIC CHRISTIAN" AND "CHRISTIAN BLUES" SOUNDCLICK STATIONS, BUT TODAY MY 14 YEAR OLD ADDING ABOUT SIX OF YOUR SONGS TO HIS "SOULFUL BLUES" STATION, A CHRISTIAN BLUES STATION THAT HE COMPILES.
HE HAS A GREAT TESTIMONY OF HOW THREE YEARS AGO WHEN HE WAS ELEVEN A CAR HIT HIM GOING 50 MILES PER HOUR, HE WAS IN A COMA ALMOST A MONTH AND WHEN HE CAME OUT OF IT , HE BEGAN TO TELL US HOW THAT JESUS TOOK HIM IN HIS ARMS WHEN THE CAR HIT HIM AND TOOK HIM TO HEAVEN WHEN HE SAW HIS GRANDFATHER AND WAS TOLD TO COME BACK HOME TO HIS FAMILY.
IT'S BEEN OVER THREE YEARS, HE HAD TO RELEARN HOW TO WALK, TALK, EAT, READ, AND NOW HE'S PLAYING THE DRUM SET , AND VERY WELL I MIGHT ADD.
IF YOU GET A CHANCE, CHECK OUT OUR SONG"kEEPIN' hOPE ALIVE", IT'S A PRAYER FROM MY SON'S HOSPITAL BED AS HE LIE IN A COMA . IF YOU GET A CHA
