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

First and foremost, I am a writer. I am always on the lookout for artists and publishers looking for fresh songs to add to their library of hits. For me, life happens in songs. Our hopes, dreams, fears, disappointments, convictions, passions, mishaps, victories - all of it comes to life in a song. Thanks for listening.

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

alive.

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

We live in a time when the ARTIST seems to be the "thing" that sells. It is becoming far more difficult for the true "songwriter" to find a voice. Not impossible, just difficult.

What do you think of Drooble?

So far, so good.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

pudgy fingers that make bar chords difficult to master

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

go to venues - see live music (and other live entertainment) - we must support the creative arts.

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

very, very thick skin. Everyone has an opinion. Listen to the opinion of the pros but even take those for granted. Believe in the music you create - it's there for a reason! Keep on keeping on. One of my personal goals is to write one song every day - some of them are just horrible - but that discipline brings the cream to the top.
