What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music is a language all it's own. Anyone can understand it.

What is your music dream?

Doing what I do. I'm fortunate.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Seriously? World Peace. LOL.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

The Beatles "A Hard Day's Night"

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

I like most genres, really. I gravitate to singer/songwriter, folk-rock.

What inspires you to make music?

If you do it once, and turns out ok, it's like a drug. A little is good- a lot is better.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

Be real. Share the good, bad and everything in-between. Don't be a hater. Please, don't be a hater.

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

Fulfilled

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

Depends on what a person is trying to achieve. With technology, anyone can "broadcast" their music/creation. That's great. But, there is too much (crap) out there. Some of that crap is probably mine. Making a good living in music is rare. The industry is very tight-circled. That's part of the human condition though. As long as the desire to create/share my music continues, I will. I confess, I'm losing the drive- day by day. But, in my mind, I have achieved more than many, and I'm grateful.

What do you think of Drooble?

Drooble is a great opportunity for every talent level to learn the world of making music. I wish there were more honesty in the area of feedback. If I submit a song that could use "help," I want to know.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Nothing. I'm over it. lol

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

No, I don't get out much.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Be gifted/talented. Work as hard as you have the ability too, without making family relationships suffer. Like it or not, the rest is up to God.

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

Here's just one. A friend of mine in Nashville, Eric Peters.
