It's all in the moment

About Me

First i would like to say that the song "Its All in the moment" is temporary(recorded with my mp3 player) and therefore of real bad quality..I'm working on the real recordings! so please, listen to the essence :-) ____________________________________________________________ ___________ I started playing the Violin at the age of 4 and suffered for 11 years being trotted out by my doting parents to perform at various family functions. Believe it or not I actually survived this without too many traumatic psychological side-effects................................................ .......................................................As a form of rebellion to all this psycho-drama and the fact that I found most classical music depressing, I looked for another way to express myself musically. So from age 15 I picked up the guitar and entered a whole new world. The same year I was asked to sing in a band: Wireless. This gave my voice the chance to grow. While singing for Wireless I started to write my own music as well. At age 16, I was a finalist in the largest Belgian art competition for 13-19 year olds in the category Music.Now Im playing Solo, trying to get as much experience as possible.................................................... .................................................Made in Japan, born in Belgium and having a Kiwi father and Flemish mother opened many doors for me. This heritage has given me an open perspective and as a result I create my own music trend. ........................................................ Creating is a passion ............................................................ .................... .......................................... Hope you enjoy the music!!! ............................................................ ............................................................ ..All informed comments are welcome. But please be nice :-)..

Its time that Singer-Songwriters have a place to play. How nice would it be to have an audiance that comes to hear your kind of music, acoustic. People who listen and enjoy and understand what message...
