About Me

Been livin Music since I can remember...still travelin to where ever the Music takes me... Have met and interacted with a lot of interesting, great and not so great people... Been blessed to perform, write and produce with some very talented and special artists... I'm currently traveling around Europe with my beautiful, talented wife while she does her thing, singing and dancing in Musicals. It's a far cry from Reggae or Rock but interesting none the less...Art is art, some is great and much of it sucks, but hell, that's just my opinion...As i write this we are in beautiful Zurich, Switzerland...man, the chocolate is really good here!! I've also been blessed to have two beautiful children. Both witty and smart...you can check them out in my friends...Ru-ster and Go D Go....my son Dan is killin em with his band HorseShoes n Hand Grenades..check em out...my daughter Rudie, she's in school workin her ass off, just one of the coolest people I know... To my Musical credit I'm still kikn around...you can check out TESSANNE CHIN. I'm very proud of our relationship and the Music that has spawned from it, she continues to be an inspiration and world talent. The Music we make together is some of my proudest stuff. You can see me this year, 2008, runnin around America with my boys FEAR NUTTIN BAND. Great friends that make some of the coolest unique Music north of Kingston, Jamaica, my home town...not really, I'm from Rochester NY where my boy Ron Stackman continues to make great Music at Big Lawn... and even though I reside in Hamburg, Germany, I consider Jamaica my home....sunshine, natural food, beautiful beaches, herb and when you're in country and at one with Jah you feel Peace like no place else, at least for me that is.... Peace, funny word these days with many meanings....A lot like the word Freedom, doesnt seem to have the same definition as it used to.... Stefan Zweig wrote... Peace is not a thing of weakness, It calls for heroism and action. Day by day you must wrest it from the mouths of liars. You must stand alone against the multitude, for clamor is always on the side of the many, and the liar has ever the first word. The meek must be strong.
