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

Music is a portal, a channel into alternate dimensions of the mind, body and spirit. My experience with music has been, for as long as I can recall, forever changing . A lifelong lesson and journey of the ups and downs, hills, valleys, highs and lows of my life, of history and life's mysteries and life as we know it, the seen, the unseen and everything in between.

What inspires you to make music?

For lack of a better expression I will say divine intervention. I have always had a voice and calling deep inside of me that longed to write and record thought provoking music that inspires and teaches anyone listening.

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

Truth, lies, love, hate and everything in between.

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

That can depend entirely upon the audience as well as the setting but I like being on stage. I've never really had an issue with it. I have gotten nervous a couple of times but I especially like it when I know the audience is receptive to the message .

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

The reality for a musician these days is that the game is forever changing. It has finally starting to take shape and evolve over the last 10 or so years I have noticed especially due to the forever fast and changing digital marketplace. I think the opportunity to reach the masses with music however, because of the internet, is greater than it has ever been for a musician in the history of musicians.

What do you think of Drooble?

I think it's, groovy.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Writers block.

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