Story

I have written over 100, maybe 200 songs but have never done much about it except for a handfull of demos. People like what I come up with and that is why I think I should let more people know. Here I am on Drooble! Also on Tube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1PZ0FsSLMzrwvQS5CBsTjw?view_as=subscriber

it's all in the repertoire, i think. if the songs are good, they should be pushed, but I don't know how to do it.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

well, listen to Jean Redpath singing 'love is teasing', if that doesn't move you, you're a lost cause. https://youtu.be/Z1Awuai1M2s
