Full Q&A along with links and music below.
Where are you from and what style of music do you create? (In your own words, not necessarily in marketing items terms or by popular genre classifications.)
I am from New York. I create a variety of music which includes Inspirational, and Pop music.
What led you down this path of music and what motivates you to keep going?
First and foremost, my love for music, and personal life situations led me to write this music.
The most important thing that motivates me to keep going is the passion I have to sing my songs and the joy and feeling it gives me when one of my fans, friends, strangers or family members tell me that it touched them, and how it relates to their life.
How is this new release different than previous ones? Were you trying to accomplish anything specific?
This new release is completely different wherein my first release is an Inspirational song, “I Call Each Of You By Name.” This new release is more of a Pop song.
Actually yes, I am trying to accomplish the goal of bringing people together with different styles of music that I create so it is not only in one genre of music.
Name one or two challenges you face as an indie musician in this over saturated, digital music age? How has technology helped you, (since we know it does help)?
One of the most important challenges to me is developing a timeless sound in a life-long marketplace. Technology has definitely helped me by expanding my music, creative expression through innovation.
What was the last song you listened to?
I just listened to my new release “So In Love”.
What do you prefer, Vinyl? CDs? MP3s?
I love Vinyl, classic, but my favorite is MP3s.
How about this one… Do you prefer Spotify? Apple Music? BandCamp? Or something else? Why?
My favorite go-to is YouTube. To me its quick, easy I search for what I want and there it is. I also am a fan of Spotify as well.
What is the best place to discover you online and discover more music?
