I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a 41 year old dude who loves to listen to good music as well as play music. I've listened to so much music and met so many great musicians that I have been inspired to do more with my music. I especially like acoustic based Christian music but as you can see by my friends, my tastes go beyond as well. One of the main reasons I'm on here is to help promote good quality music with preferably a spiritual emphasis. If you think you got what it takes for me to promote you here on my site, feel free to let me know. Also, I'm thinking of becoming a manager as well for artists one of these days. I got about a year left until I finally get my Bachelors degree in Business/Psychology from DBU. I seem to just now be doing things that 22-23 year olds normally do. Those things being graduating from college, starting a music career and hopefully getting married. I'd love to make new friends in and out of the music industry. I would love to network with other indie Christian artists who can challenge me in my music ministry. My first challenge has already occurred. I lead worship at my church to the preschoolers. These kids have no problem critiquing my performance. It brings me great joy to know that I am not only teaching them the joy of singing but more importantly, singing to their Lord Jesus.
