What is your music dream?

To create, tour and perform with a sound healing orchestra fused with medicine music to uplift the heart, mind and spirit of the people and initiate self healing processes and global awakening.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

I feel connection. I feel everyone and I feel love. I feel as an instrument from source through which love flows translated into music.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Musicians have always lived for music since that is their purpose of being and to translate sound from silence to guide people back to source within and hear the symphony of the universe orchestrating it all. Without music the soul of humanity would starve. Music is soul food and uplifts our spirit, moves and inspires all. People though have taken music for granted and platforms serve mostly themselves and the consumers. More fair distribution of resources and sharing of profit please to keep musicians alive. To produce a decent song you must spent at least 2-3000 $ in studio work, engineering, guest musicians fees, editing, mixing, mastering etc. An album costs around 30.000$ in production cost. Streaming does not cover these expenses under millions of streams. Take better care of your musicians. Donate, support.
