I am a lifelong musician and songwriter. Jesus Christ Is my personal saviour and redeemer. Ever since I was a little kid and saw my first Elvis movie on TV, being a "guitarman" has been my dream. So I've spent most of my life honing my skills and chasing the dream. Unfortunately, as many can attest to, for most it remains unfulfilled dream, and for a few a total nightmare. No longer does it seem there's any tangible avenues for a musician to make a real living at doing what they love, while developing and polishing their talents, without selling your soul, or at the very least selling out to the corruption, greed, and pure evil the big time music business has become. I know this because I was once caught up in the whole bait and switch scam, that convinces young and not so young artists alike, too lay aside their personal beliefs, values, even the very things that makes each one's talent uniquely special and beautiful. The greed machine, belches out the smog of wanton lust of power, control, and the almighty profit margin they can grift out of countless aspiring entertainers, writers, and artists. Some who with a little nurturing and space to master their craft, might have penned the next "I CAN ONLY IMAGINE" or "I WALK THE LINE", sadly many will like myself go largely unheard, and remain in obscurity, no matter how many times they allow themselves to be recreated at the whim of some "expert" who knows nothing about nothing, especially music the universal language of the soul and gift to humanity from our Lord. After finally realizing when after the umpteenth time I bowed myself to THEIR TERMS, THEIR RULES, THEIR CONDITIONS, THE GATEKEEPERS STILLED DENIED ME ENTRANCE INTO THE CLUB.....I realized I was never going to be accepted by a corrupt/criminal/contol cult that is rotten at it's core and satanic at it's highest levels, I thank God I never got in, See, that's the nightmare, it's the ones who did "get in the club" who are the biggest losers in the whole vicious plot. Controlled, bought, sold, and OWNED......as dancing bears, and trained seals who are led around to perform tricks for their supper until they are used up then these poorest of creatures are tossed aside as the beast is moving on to it's next lamb to devour......December 2020, I launched the production, recording of the first album to be released under my own label Pik-Tone! Records......the album "Or'ange Sunshine and other songs" came out August 31 2021. as a digital only release as of to date, till such time as capital is raised for a CD version to be put out. I have a dream and goal of seeing Pik-Tone! Records growing and taking on other artists and projects in a partnership setting in which, not greed, but rather honest upfront integrity is the standard and making music that speaks to the human soul spirit and heart by telling stories that need to be told, uplifting the best parts of people, mourning the sad, celebrating the glad, and putting a song on the people's lips that makes a joyful noise unto the Lord. I'm not asking anyone to donate or give unless you want to, but I appreciate any who do, I have totally funded all I done to date, which sadly leaves me very limited of means in which to get the word out, making tours/ appearances, funding subsequent releases and creating a footprint in the market place, and operating outside the corporate cabal's influence and control. This is my way of doing what I can to make difference. Most of all, I appreciate your prayers and encouragement,regardless of any financial help which is greatly appreciated as well. God Bless You and God Bless America!!  Any support you are able to give will be greatly appreciated....
