I'm an artist, photographer, singer, writer, and poet. So I'm interested in art, photography, music, literature and anything creative. Music is actually my biggest interest.
My tastes range from Gospel to Hip-Hop. Soul to Classical. Pop to Rap. It's probably easier to say what I don't like, but that would get me into trouble so I will keep it to myself but will share if asked.
As music is so huge in my life I am going to simply state what's most influencing me right now. I have two friends who will always hold a very special place in my heart for the music they have brought. The first is my best friend Chuck Vickers (Gospel Recording Artist) who died of AIDS about 10 years ago. His final album was prophetic in it's title "Now I Must Go" I keep some of those songs on my MP3 Player at all times.
The second biggest influence was performing at the Open Door Music Festival with Julie Michaels and the MCC Toronto Choir. The CD Produced from this festival is ecclectic and very enjoyable. All the artists are to be congratulated, including me.
The third influence affecting me is Shawn Glynn, we have been friends since before I knew he was the Recording Artist he is today. I have had the privilege of attending his recent concert tour here in Toronto and wow I'm no longer just a friend, I'm a friend and a fan. Check him out on myspace.
