WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE ELEVATION PROJECT

About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor

The Elevation Project is a charitable organization started in honor of our son, Peter Thomas James. Peter was a poet and rap artist. Just as he was becoming known and established, he was killed by a drunk driver at the age of 22. We hope that one day we can have a place where artists of all kinds can go to for studio time, workplaces, and support. Until that day, we will support the arts, here in our small way. From time to time, we will put up information about The Elevation Project, fund raising events, and the people who will be making this dream come true. Thank you for stopping by, stay as long as you like, and please join us.

His "visual" accounts take you to a place I like to call, "NOVEL CINEMA". All you need to supply is the quiet, the place, and Marcello's words will do the rest.

All the wonderful people you will hear, see, and read about on this page. We are now featuring, RICK PAYMAN, MIRRORED SHOWER, and ELECTROBUDDHA on our music player, and ALAN McEWEN, an amazing graphic artist and 3D animator and an amazing writer named, MARCELLO.

RICK PAYMAN, is a unique musician who plays the most beautiful guitar music. He has a Classical feel but with a style that is his own. He has played with many other musicians who in turn have been inspired by his wonderful talent. His acoustic sound is easy to listen to but has the most creative work involved. The sound of his guitar takes you to places, allows you to stop for awhile, and rest in it's beauty.

ELECTROBUDDHA is a man of many talents. ''Electrobuddha is a one man Scottish based operation and is the brainchild of Mark McCaffer. Mark has sung for a number of years and his most notable success was as a backing vocalist playing live to 30,000 at the Edinburgh New Year show some years back. Electrobuddha started whilst Mark was living in Stockholm and Dancefloor Lover was the 2nd track written after Spaceracejunky. An album followed on which both tracks appeared and was entitled 'Bleep, Whirr, Disco!' It received rave reviews in the Scottish press where it was stated it sounded like Beck mixed with Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and James Brown.' Since then Mark has written a second album called 'Shine Like The Sun.' Both albums are available for sale contacting Mark directly at www.myspace.com/electrobuddha2 or email [email protected] Mark is also available for vocal work, writes soundtracks and is currently working on a new disco orientated track entitled 'European Boy, European Girl. It sounds like Calvin Harris or Mika they say. Judge for yourself and thanks for all the interest. A record label is sought at the moment.

MIRRORED SHOWER consists of IAN UREN & SONNY JAMES LOVELL. They met in 1985. After working together for a number of years, Sonny went off and formed a Jazz band "STREET LEVEL" and Ian got together with the keyboardist from "SCAT POETA" MATT JOHNSON, who now plays keyboards and writes songs with JK for "JAMIROQUAI" along with his own work. Ian left in 1995 to persue his love of writing, poetry, and painting. After a period of time Ian, Sonny and Matt got together to work on The Mirrored Shower project. After these sessions the album, "HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN" was produced. In 2000, Sonny and Ian started working in Ian's home studio in Dorset, England, and the music goes on.
