Message from the Artist:
"I can certainly tell you, during University I wouldn't have believed that I would have achieved what I have with music/art even if I came back in time and told myself. Now as the 2nd last left of my music blood line remaining, I have too many people counting on me here (in our circle) and in the after life to smash the last barrier. I'm comfortable with being a lifer - it's the only way to live in your art. I owe it all to my music family, my brothers and sisters in sound and the age and era we have been afforded to make music accessible that matters and moves people."
