About Me

Hello everybody! I have been a performing musician since the age of 6. I'm a classically trained pianist. I also learned how to play guitar, clarinet, alto sax and baritone sax. But pop music was always my first love, and I spent every second of my younger days playing the piano along with my 45's, and have spent my entire life working on my passion.My first "real" concert was the Eagles Hotel California Tour in Nov. of 1976. That concert changed my life and made me realize that I really wanted to make a career out of music. I never looked back!My songwriting partner, Tony Burton, has been a true inspiration. Tony is the best lead guitarist I've ever worked with, and he always comes up with the perfect melody to match my lyrics. My goal is to always be able to play and record, and one day I would like to be on the road. I am continually inspired by my heroes.Because of MySpace, I've had the pleasure of having Steve Lungrin write the music to one of my songs "Baby I Make You This Promise". I have also helped ZoSia out with lyrics on three of her songs. I love ZoSia, check her out!! I've also co-written lyrics with sweet little Katie Louise... so stay tuned for all the new collaborations!I'm also a mental health therapist, and I work with people in relationship/divorce issues, weight loss, depression, domestic abuse, parenting skills, and women's issues. It is so rewarding helping others achieve better relationships and better life circumstances. I do online counseling at LivePerson.com/Rhonda-Bennett-MA.Myspace Graphics
