Editor's Notes

  • #2 My Brand Mantra – a burning desire to create music for all people to enjoy. My First Studio.
  • #3 Music is the pill I take to cure my Insanity!! Music is my escape from reality and it can bring me back to reality at the same time.
  • #4 I have had many teachers teaching me piano, guitar, drums and voice. Some teachers had their own studio and others were from church.
  • #5 Singing Karoake at the ranch.
  • #6 These two guys have been playing together for years. I love it when they get together, cause they play the Spanish oldies.
  • #7 There were so many functions in church in Bridgeport, CT. children’s choir, teen choir, adult choir, plus all the church services and get togethers Sunday through Saturday.
  • #8 Good Shepherd Christian Church, Pastor Simon Castillo
  • #9 After joining a small music group at 14, I will never forget my experience playing for inmates. I was the youngest in the group.
  • #10 Musical at Central high school my Junior Year. I played Peron in “Evita”.
  • #11 In the musical, Lil’ Abner, I played the lead as Lil’ Abner. This was my senior year.
  • #12 I was in camp singing in the choir. My first time playing with a full orchestra. I also won an award for “most outstanding contributor to the camp. This happened in the summer of 1990. I also won most talented in my class.
  • #13 I went to college as a Music Vocal Major. I had a good experience with different music teachers.
  • #14 In 1996, I graduated from Briarwood College, now Lincoln College of New England. I was a mortuary Science student. I was Licensed in November 1997.
  • #15 I hit ROCK BOTTOM and just stayed stuck there for years. I was trying to figure out what was wrong. I couldn’t find a Doctor to explain what was wrong. So I decided to figure it out for myself.
  • #16 Misery and frustration. I WAS NOT HAPPY. The pay and hours were terrible. After speaking with a friend who worked and retired from the field after 40 years , he told me it was the “ worst 40 years of his life. So I got out the business.
  • #17 I had to go see the doctor. It was in a bad neighborhood in Orlando, Fl. I was talking to a homeless man and had asked him for the word of the day. And this was his response to me. I have lived by this ever since.
  • #19 Small portion of my family in Kissimmee, FL. On the ranch.
  • #20 Had to make a choice. After being in and out of hospitals for 15 years, I have to beat this disease. I had to figure out what’s most important to me.
  • #21 Joined a Latin group and could not believe I got paid to play music.
  • #22 After being in Florida for 5 years, I decided to go back home to CT. My son was there and it was time to be in his life full time. Now what do I do with myself. I was home bored with no plan. No job. And going back to funeral directing wasn’t an option. But then I get an email. Something that I have been trying to do all my life comes up.
  • #23 After years of trying to get into Full Sail or a school that taught Audio Production, I finally get my foot in the door.
  • #24 It’s time to take my talent to the next level. I am maintaining a 3.0 average in school.
  • #25 I am looking to play with anyone who loves music. But if I can’t find anyone, I will always be happy enough just to play. I went from living a nightmare to dreaming again.
  • #26 I’m old school when it comes to Hip Hop. I want to produce music for the hip hop world.
  • #27 My target audience are those people who love Latin music. From Salsa, bachata to Latin jazz and Hip Hop.
  • #28 Sometimes change can happen over night. Change can take years. But you have to be willing to change certain things. Not everything needs to be changed. I am still climbing my mountain.
