What inspired you to get into music?
“I always loved music. I went to a music and creative art school in my early days. When I saw the Beatles on television, it changed my life. I wanted to be in a band.”

How would you describe your music?
“ I guess you’d say it is an eclectic combination of many genres which comes from doing 20 years of Pop, producing other artists, country, hip hop, R&B and classical.” For the song “Summer Shirt” we thought the best way to celebrate having over 100k views of the video for “Peace Will Come” was to release this song.”

What would you say is your recording and songwriting style?
“That’s a hard question. I started playing Rock & Roll in various bands. I formed a music production company with my lead singer from my band 3D (Polygram Records) and we ended up producing the music for kids shows, tons of commercials, and the hit television show ‘Overhaulin’ on Velocity TV. Although my roots are Blues & Rock, I try to do a variety of styles including dance music, Americana, and Standards… but we always seem to return to the Rock & Blues roots.”

Where would you like to see your music career in 5 years time?
“I don’t look at the future, I look at the present. All I want to do is to keep putting out quality music. With good health, I hope to be doing it for a long time!”

Where can music fans listen to your music?
