Music has always been in my blood.  I always had a dream to create my own album.  A kind of bucket list thing. 

 I started early in life by taking piano and drum lessons.  I played in school bands as I was getting my education.  Started playing with some local bands during the same time.  Never had a lot of success, just playing clubs around town.  I went on the road for a while and submitted demo tapes to record labels with some of those bands.  Actually, was offered a recording contract by a label with one of those bands, but, declined it due to a disagreement on publishing rights. However, I still continued pursuing a career in music.  By the time I was in my 30's I realized I was not going to be a rock star, so started working day gigs as a full-time job and not just working day gigs to pay the rent. 

I continued playing music during this time and always had a song in my head.  The years went by and finally I retired from the day gigs.  With no real plan for retirement other than the usual of travelling some and seeing the sites, I decided to create my album.  Well, I started working on it and spent hours, frustration, tears, but utmost, joy in creating it.  I finally finished and now am releasing it.  The dream I always had wanted to fulfill.  Now, I have a second album that is out now.  I am very proud of this as I have added vocals to some of the songs.  Which leads me to where I am now.
