Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Pink Floyed, Led Zepplin, The Stones, The Beatles, Eric Clapton Stevie Ray Vaughn

What inspires you to make music?

All I touch see and hear- Life!

What is the message you want to send with your music?

it's going to be alright with Love, Peace, Wisdom, Power and a connection to others through respect

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Empowered to help others feel better about life

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

I see musicians as powerful pawns in the bigger picture of things and we need to recover our rights and royalties for our works as well as revamp SOCAN- ASCAP & the CTRC to force them to be able to do so or shut them down and start a new Royalty program with some fairness to it regarding the writer and or composer & Artists. As being ripped off is not the best incentive to continue producing or publishing it

What do you think of Drooble?

I am not sure yet but it appears to be a good outlet to get music out there although I believe we should get Royalties for plays by others and that's another avenue many of these music forms should offer as an incentive to join

What frustrates you most as a musician?

The deals that CRTC, SOCAN, ASCAP and others make on our behalf settling on ripping the artist and or composer off to line their pockets. That is nothing less than THEFT and selling rights of composers and Artists that do not belong to them as a corporation but the true ownership of the Artist and or composer!!!

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Always support other Artists and composers attending shows and coaching those in need of support

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Being a Pro at what they do with confidence and a will to please with the love and sharing of music

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Graham Andrews, Tim Heller/ Rock Voo Doo, The REKKERZ, Head, Sophia Radish
