Influences: Being a keyboardist for a band in the 70s and 80s and playing at church the rest of the time has given me multiple influences but I always go back to the basics of R&B, Classic rock, Stevie, EW&F, and then twist it up with Clinton/Bootsyesqe funk and then just for good measure toss in some Tower of Power, WAR with my best renditions of Tony Palmore and Gary Carter guitar solos. Put some Temptations and Cameo harmonies in there with some smooth female vocalists and a couple of sophiticated but angry rappers then top it off with some ChicagoBuddyMilesJamesBrownEarthwind horns and a talkbox and that's kinda what we sound like. But the main thing is the message contained in the lyrics. Yes we love our neighbor as ourselves and we serve the Living God and His Son Jesus Christ but we are not your meek and mild Christians and we will hit you in the gut with the truth. Why such a hard approach to Salvation? Because you don't have as much time as you think you do and you need to make a decision NOW! So listen up and enjoy the music but GET THE MESSAGE!
