1. For many artists, they cite a defining moment for themselves when they knew they wanted to be a singer. For many it was the appearance of Elvis on the Ed Sullivan show, to another generation it was the Beatles’ appearance on Sullivan half a decade later. Is there such a defining moment for you?
My Brother and I, as children used to dress up and lip-sink to the Beatles Abby Road and White Album. The Audience: Mom and Dad, been hooked ever since.
2. When you’re not creating music what are you listening to? Who are some of your favorites?
Always been pop rock/contempory country with some classic rock to keep it real. Current Fav’s Daughtry, Pink, Kid Rock, Carrie Underwood
3. What would you say is your greatest moment so far as an artist, either on record or live?
By far hearing my music on the radio/internet. Recording at the Almond Bros studio was pretty cool as was opening for the Black Crowes, big show years back. Love the Crowds!
4. Do you believe music can change the world or is just something to listen to?
I believe music can change and even save life. Simply it makes everything better.
How much can music influence current events?
Looks like my tribute to the Queen song “The show must Go On” in support of a resolutions between the Detroit Symphony and it’s musicians worked. They are back in the music business,,, I’m just sayin’
5. How has technology affected the music industry? How has technology affected your career as a musician?
You know, I have seen a lot of great musicians and vocalists get caught up in the technology. Yes everything is easier nowadays but you still have to learn the new toys and ask yourself at the end of the day…Can you do everything and be great at all of it? I can’t, rather have the best of the best and work as a team. Oh, hey that’s what I’m doing…I have an awesome team!
6. Now for my Barbara Walters question: If you were a pair of shoes what type of shoes would you be?
The kind that never touches the ground.
