My enjoyment of music began as a small kid with a transistor radio trying to find a good nights sleep in a violent household. From there I took up playing the trumpet and writing simple tunes to soothe my troubled heart which is still a part of me today. I have a very extensive library of music and my hunger for music knows no barrier other than hip-hop or outrageous rap.

It was not uncommon for me to join in on ‘open mic’ shows and I truly enjoy this.

Classical music is my drive to work inspiration and then from there it is college radio stations that play an assortment of bluegrass, jazz, blues and sounds that have no catalog name assigned for them.

For me music has the audio effect of photo alubums and I am always utterly amazed at how I can remember a moment in time so clearly.

My daughters are expanding their view of music stepping out beyond the local radio stations and finding the music I so enjoy being inserted into the movie soundtrack of popular features today.
