About Me

"MUSIC...LIFE...LOVE".John Maurice has a new school flavor with a old school feel. John Maurice's "Music...Life...Love" is taking things back to falling in love, romance, sex, and real life. John Maurice is giving you an understanding on what love really is, and how to really give it...GOOD!!!The second of two siblings born and raised by the Jersey Shores, new singer/songwriter/producer John Maurice began writing songs in the 3rd grade. Although none of those songs made it on his debut "MUSIC...LIFE... LOVE" CD, they were the first steps that brought him to this point in his musical career.John's initial music exposure came from growing up in a musical home where mom a pianist and singer once a member of the Count Basie Choir and the New Jersey Mass Choir, an aunt who kept him on an eclectic musical diet and other relatives in the music industry. Little did the family realize that the early Saturday morning John Maurice concerts, that featured John banging on the piano before the cock crowed would result in him pursing a music career.With the dream of a music career tucked beneath his arms John was jolted to another level of realization when his dad took him to see "Purple Rain" the movie. Young John Maurice was spellbound by the visuals of an Africian American leading man "Prince" not only playing the leading man but singing and performing his own songs. This captivating experience showed John numerous windows of opportunities and led to him rethink his future in the arts.During the late 80's to early 90's John Maurice was a lead singer for 3D a funk/fusion band which consisted of his brother, a cousin and other members. He later joined SY (Sincerely Yours) and stayed with the group through the mid 90's. The band performed around the Greater NYC area cub scene. when a failed internal management agreement resulted in contract negotiations with Arista Records to fall apart.Although John Maurice formed yet another group "Back to Back" in 96, took a detour and attended film school in the late 90's and acted in the Tim Robins' movie "The Cradle Will Rock" it wasn't until Aug. 2007 that he entered the studio to self produce "MUSIC...LIFE...LOVE".Approximately Eight Months later John Maurice was done with the production of the album.Finally, in 2008 John Maurice debut album "MUSIC...LIFE...LOVE" was release on June 20th 2008.Fans from literally every corner of the globe, even some at the North Pole, (from New Zealand to Iceland, Beijing to Boston, Tokyo to Toronto) have given the thumbs up once they hear tracks from the album.Myrna from the Philippines said,"it's hard to choose a new favorite song from your songs because they are all good.. your voice is so powerful and your music has a therapeutic effect."Please google Don't stop the love CD promo. or Drean girl CD promo.
