Mick Jones From Foreigner

Listen to "Mick Jones From Foreigner Is Ready For The 2018 Tour" on Spreaker. The architect behind Foreigner’s extraordinary catalogue of smash hits, Mick has crafted some of rock music’s most enduring songs and produced 10 multi-platinum albums. Grammy and Golden Globe nominated songwriter, performer and producer and winner of the prestigious Ivor Novello songwriter award in Britain in 1998, Mick first began playing guitar in his early teens. "I knew early on that I could never hold a regular job. I had to play guitar. I had to somehow make my way into music" he says. After starting his own Blues/Rock band and opening for the Rolling Stones in pubs across South London, Mick’s first big break came in 1964 when he moved to Paris and was hired to play with French singer Sylvie Vartan and later hired to work as musical director for French rock icon, Johnny Hallyday. Jones returned to his native England in the early 70’s to reform the band Spooky Tooth with Gary Wright. After Spooky Tooth broke up, Mick moved to New York City and, in 1976, formed Foreigner with fellow Brits Ian Mc Donald and Dennis Elliott, and Americans Lou Gramm, Alan Greenwood and Ed Gagliardi. In his own words: "My initial musical vision for Foreigner was to combine Blues and R&B with British Rock and make it sound soulful and authentic. I?d grown up in England and had the English influence but I was also inspired by many elements of American music, from Mississippi Blues to Country and Western. Foreigner was the vehicle to get that musical blend across." "I’m grateful to be surrounded by the talented musicians that make up Foreigner today. Now each night on stage brings Foreigner’s music alive with energy and excitement. Thanks guys for making it all new again!"

George Lovett

Listen to "George Lovett From Showtime At The Apollo On FOX" on Spreaker. Getting the opportunity to not just walk across the Apollo stage but to perform in front of the loudest audience on the planet. Georgia's very own George Lovett has been musically attached to his dreams since day one. From the very beginning he knew there would be challenges and changes and all the way his family has been there to keep the fire burning. Now George is on FOX's Showtime At The Apollo on Thursday nights.

Harmonics

Listen to "Harmonics" on Spreaker. We've all heard how kids say the darnedest things. I believe we never grow out of that stage. We just stop documenting it. I love reading FaceBook entries because there are a lot of funny comments being released. Then we make our way down the river like a water bug and totally forget that area of laughter until someone either likes it or the social network sends out an anniversary reminder. Because I'm a daily writer I get to sneak back into those moments of pen meeting paper and come across some pretty serious stuff and all too many times a totally insane comment that still has strings attached to the present. The goal is to learn from what's written. Not to measure growth but to see if the lessons delivered one year or fifteen years ago can help build a stronger structure on this journey toward the final horizon. I came across a sentence penned out on April 14, 2016 that says, "Allow all that has shades of shadow to know you've accepted it. But it can't become the wave of the day. Allow there to be a vividly clear picture painted by the warmth offered by harmony." What is harmony? Being a yes person? Being dedicated to your job and family? Being almost perfect? Harmony means different things to each of us. If you personally don't feel harmonic with the moment how do future collaborations come into play? Talk about pressure! For there to be workplace harmony it doesn't start with the bosses mandate. It begins with the way you wake up in the morning. Crap! More pressure! Harmony grows from the 6th sense. Hold it. There are only five right? The sixth appears by way of trusting the subtle existence of there being a power greater than you and through you it will reach others. But if the mind body and soul are endlessly entangled with feeding the other five senses the 6th will never find a place of importance. Having faith in the 6th opens the channels that require growth. Give yourself permission to participate. Make room for harmony.

John Allcock

Listen to "John Allcock Forty Things I Wish I'd Told My Kids" on Spreaker. John Allcock, author of FORTY THINGS I WISH I’D TOLD MY KIDS: Mindful Messages About Success, Happiness, Leather, Pickles, and the Use and Misuse of Imagination (a Morgan James paperback, on sale March 2018). Allcock has seen first-hand how mindfulness can transform our lives. As the co-founder of Sea Change Preparatory - a school that incorporates mindfulness into it’s curriculum - he has witnessed how this essential practice has helped students achieve the unthinkable. Continuing to break records in swimming, students at Sea Change Prep have learned to use mindfulness to overcome fear, dismiss limiting beliefs about their abilities, and achieve the goals that they set for themselves. Now, these mindfulness concepts are outlined in FORTY THINGS I WISH I’D TOLD MY KIDS to help adults and children alike achieve peace, self-acceptance, and self-realization. Practical, universally-applicable lessons cover: • How to let go of the “I’ll be happy when…” fallacy • How to identify the false narratives that prevent us from achieving our goals • How to drop the mental habits that do not lead to genuine happiness • How to change our thoughts, not control them • How to separate our intrinsic value from our achievements • How to become a student of pain, not a victim of it

Graeme Edge From The Moody Blues

Listen to "Graeme Edge Celebrating 50 Years Of The Moody Blues" on Spreaker. Fifty years ago this month, The Moody Blues released Days of Future Passed, one of the greatest progressive rock albums of all time, featuring iconic hits, including “Nights in White Satin” and “Tuesday Afternoon,” among others.

Mark Greaney

Listen to "Mark Greaney Agent In Place" on Spreaker. From #1 New York Times bestselling author Mark Greaney comes AGENT IN PLACE (Berkley Hardcover; February 20, 2018) the latest explosive thriller featuring the lethal assassin known as the Gray Man. Already named “one of the top must-read thrillers of 2018” by Ryan Steck of The Real Book Spy, AGENT IN PLACE is the seventh in the New York Times bestselling Gray Man series, which has been drawing rave reviews since the first book in the series was published. When Mark first started writing the series, the legendary Tom Clancy began looking for a co-writer. And he found a kindred spirit in Mark Greaney. Greaney collaborated on three books with the legendary author before Clancy’s death in 2013. Greaney kept the stories of Jack Ryan and The Campus alive with full support of the Clancy estate, while simultaneously writing the Gray Man series, featuring Courtland “Court” Gentry. Mark has now passed the baton of the Clancy novels to a new author and is now writing Gray Man exclusively. In the course of his research for both the Gray Man and Jack Ryan novels, Mark has traveled to more than fifteen countries and trained alongside military and law enforcement in the use of firearms, battlefield medicine, and close-range combat tactics to give his books realistic, you-are-there details. Mark keeps his finger on the pulse of military and geopolitical activities and in a 2014 interview with The Huffington Post posited that the U.S.’s greatest security threat was Russia’s Vladimir Putin—an opinion that proved to be quite prescient. Mark has taken that expertise and brought it to all of his novels, including AGENT IN PLACE. Court Gentry was the CIA’s best covert asset. Then, without warning, his overseers at the agency put him at the top of their kill list. Court fled the country and became an enigmatic killer for hire known as the Gray Man. For his latest adventure, he's working on behalf of a well-connected group of Syrian expats to secure the Syrian president's mistress so they can use her to bring down the president's regime. But the expats' plan goes awry when it's discovered the mistress has a baby—the Syrian president's only male heir—hidden away in a Damascus safe house. Court goes after the baby, a decision that comes at the price of the mistress's life. The expat organization deems the boy now useless to their cause and refuses to protect him against the Syrian first lady and the notorious Swiss assassin in her employ. With no support on the way, Court realizes he'll have to take down the Syrian president himself if he and the boy are going to make it out alive. With the Gray Man series Mark Greaney has created a contemporary to Jack Ryan, Jason Bourne, and Jack Reacher. Court Gentry is dynamically flawed—almost a superhero—but not invincible. Coupled with Greaney’s genius foresight into international political intrigue, it’s no wonder he’s the heir to the legacy of not just Tom Clancy, but also the heir apparent to writers like Vince Flynn, Brad Thor, Robert Ludlum, and Lee Child.

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 98

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 98" on Spreaker. A simple but healthy thought fell into my process of growth the other day: It's all around you. Why aren't you taking notes? We take in so much mentally on a daily basis who would ever think that sitting down with a writing instrument and documenting it would carry worth with its weight? I'm the type of numb skull that wants to know why birds sing while its raining. Humans do all they can to bust free of the gray sky and bury themselves in a hot new television show or reason to run off to the mall. It's all around you. Why aren't you taking notes? If you think your job sucks what are you doing to add a better feeling to the atmosphere? Our choices rarely match how it is we are are feeling in the moment. If we took note of the actions versus the reaction is there still enough time to change or invite a newer way to walk. My Dad would remind me of how you can't teach an old dog new tricks. The purity of chance is holding onto an engaging chunk of what's next? The rules of the game are right in front of you. I love what Howard Stern says in a station promo, "Those that make it never stopped working hard on their performance." Why aren't you taking notes?

The Invisible Valley Floor

Listen to "Invisible Valley Floors" on Spreaker. I'm a people watcher. I find great joy in sitting in very crowded places just watching, listening and writing down what makes me chuckle, worry or grow forward. During these moments I hear a lot of people talking about the dreams they had the night before. Most are bad dreams. In fact I rarely hear someone speak of locating victory during those chapters of REM. I've learned if you speak of only one the other begins to make more noise. You have to be equal with sharing the dreams. Bad dreams have amazing ways of controlling our paths during the hours of being awake. We allow the one time mental images to have a voice in what we do, how we decide and act upon. I talk a lot about dreams because I want to be better with awareness. If what I am aware of puts those pictures in motion... I can make better decisions during the awake hours. I openly admit that I pray as well as meditate before jumping into La La Land. But that doesn't stop bad dreams from happening. I am quite good at waking up from dreams. But if you wake up for one you learn to wake up for all. That generates a sleepless night. Sleep meditation has been a brilliant step in the right direction. Learning how to properly meditate is difficult enough. Now train yourself to meditate so peacefully that you give yourself permission to fall asleep. You go pretty deep. But it opens your pattern to a state of holy crap that dream felt too real. Another pitfall of sleep meditation is the length of the rest. Sometimes it's 20 minutes. Other times its just over and hour. Is it real sleep or heavy heavy prayer where you truly do become respectful of mindfulness? Using the path ignites the new morning. When I step into the studio at 530 am there's never any problem with energy or building new creative ideas. Learning more about how you dream opens your heart to having a better new tomorrow.

Zack Martino

Listen to the conversation You’ve got to love the idea of waking up and writing a song that’s charting worldwide. Zack Martino’s studio is the laptop siting in the bedroom. The very laptop he purchased after friends convinced himself to sell off his drums and go digital. This was no easy task. Zack has been on that trap set since the age of four. To push himself away wasn’t going to be an easy task. Once it did though the dude has been featured in huge magazines like Billboard and will play Ultra Miami for the first time this year. In this conversation Zack and I look into the everyday challenges of building a song. How sampling vocals has turned a new page in his creative life and what it was like to go back to the place he sold his drums and repurchased them.

Todd Riley

Listen to "Todd Riley Its All In The Pacing" on Spreaker. I've always been drawn to the story of how funny people dedicate their lives to an extremely difficult path of challenges and changes just to be labeled the headliner. Todd Riley has skipped, skated and Skyped his way through the overcrowded to the barely a seat has one butt in the chair. He laughs about that. How many people can shrug it off and lay claim to a great place to practice new material. Which he goes into during our conversation. The places of practice and more.

Painted Thoughts

Listen to "Painted Thoughts" on Spreaker. We are collectors of painted thoughts. One minute on Facebook or Twitter and you'll see what I mean. All of those thoughts endlessly tossed into what will become our forward motion. Have you ever gone back one or two years to re-read your painted thoughts? Who were you in that moment and have you grown? Maybe it's not about growth but rather are you still just as vocal? I truly do look deeply into others people's posts that express how bad of a day or life they're having. I'm not judging. I'm just wondering how a person feels when paging back to that area. Physical pictures have the strength to recreate new ideas and expressions. But blasting a negative action in the present won't be as strong when you return way way down the path. Some say it doesn't matter. But it does. My Facebook re-posts other peoples moments from several months or years ago and those reading your action generates a reaction in our hearts. This isn't a guilt trip but rather a better painted thought of how we react when our hearts are demanding action. Hey I'm horrible about spouting off a blurb that shouldn't have gone public. Only to be embarrassed by it when someone rights what I wrote. You have the freedom to paint your thoughts onto the face of any social network. Be brilliant at it while knowing what you set free six months ago during a moment of rage, worry or doubt can be turned into a tool to bring light to those dark clouds above your next painted thought.

Dana DeLorenzo

Ohio native Dana DeLorenzo has had roles in films such as A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas and The Mad Ones. In season three of Ash vs Evil Dead, Dana returns as Kelly Maxwell who finds her loyalties tested when new and old friends clash, but her hatred of evil continues to go nuclear.

George Harrison

Listen to "Concert For George" on Spreaker. On November 29, 2002, Eric Clapton gathered George Harrison's closest friends to honor him with a concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Eric, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Billy Preston, Gary Brooker and George's son Dhani all played Harrison's most beloved songs.

It's Concert for George: All Access.

Face To Face

Listen to "Face To Face" on Spreaker. As of late we keep reminding each other of how tough the times are. From the headlines to the uncertainty of quality to the crafty methods of madness that consume our everyday workplace. Then word arrives that Billy Graham's been called home. It sorta hits you. For most in this very noisy generation the face and place creates more of a shrugged shoulder move rather than an oh wow moment. But if you sat down and truly thought about it, you'd see your heart still remembers when you first caught a glimpse of such a committed figure in spiritual and American history. It's not so long forgotten. I penned out in my daily writing this morning "I don't know the man but I know a lot about the man he led millions to." I had a flashback of trying to get through Billy's autobiography. It wasn't a difficult read. I just kept wanting to know more about God then Billy. Over the past twenty four hours I've heard a lot of people mention in their conversations about how much they're going to miss Billy. I'm the odd ball that laid out in words this morning about Billy possibly being disappointed by that missing thing. Especially since his dedication, loyalty and service was to God. If you miss Billy. Then you're missing out on a lot of who and what God is and will be. Billy always said he couldn't wait to get to Heaven. He wanted to be face to face with God. To let him know how grateful he was for leading such a giving life. I never once heard him say "I think I'll miss being on earth." Billy became because God moved through him. How much are you missing by keeping God out?

Anggun

Listen to "Anggun What We Remember Conversation" on Spreaker. Born in Jakarta, Anggun holds onto a name that remains unforgettable in the hearts of millions of fans and followers. Her full name Anggun Cipta Sasmi means "A grace born out of a dream". She was far from being the first in the family to enjoy music success.

At seven years in age she put together a debut album filled with children's song. By twelve her Rock roots fully influenced she released Dunia Aku Punya. The collection of songs totally blew away music lovers making her a giant attraction in East Asia.

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 97

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 97" on Spreaker. I've always been fascinated by the view of the creative mind. How living in the future makes a great connection for the collector or buyer to one day catch up. I use a painted rock found on a mountain trail as an example. How much did the artist know before letting the stone go? So often the creative spirit wants to be picky about who gets what's been released from their imagination. It's a protection thing. Nobody wants to be judged. It takes too long to recover. Yet artists have this energy about them that allow them to glide from project to project without worrying about the continuation of the process. Creative people don't always get that part. It's part of the process. When I write my daily pages I show gratefulness to the trees, the soil and the sky. Without their participation I'd only have my hand to put words on. Taking note of all things participating creates a place of peace for the artist. A huge part of that connection is the passerby that feels something in the moment then allows the art to grow with them inside a more private surrounding of acceptance. How do you deal with your thoughts that become art? Remembering that at any given moment those receiving it don't always have your permission to be present.

Zack Martino

Listen to "Zack Martino Sold It All To Become" on Spreaker. He first bumped into his love for music sitting behind a drum set. An awesome place for many reaching out of their bedrooms toward bigger stages and performances. One problem. Zack Martino couldn't find enough people to form a band. His friends took to his side and convinced him that it was time to enter the age of digital production. He sold his drums to finance a home studio. Zack's latest song is Hold On To Me.

Ryan Brahms

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Ryan Brahms Getting Into The Biz" on Spreaker. The coolest part of the digital process is how it endlessly extends an open palm to all creative minds and processes. You can be a doctor and suddenly find yourself locked on serious amount of beats that land people on the floor or hopping around like rabbits at a festival. Ryan Brahms was heavily inspired to play by way of his father and Grandfather who would sing everywhere especially weddings. Igniting that imagination included a heavy passion to learn how to play several different instruments. He plays by one rule: John Lennon said give me a tuba I'll get you something out of it. His latest song is Love Dealer.

Jonathan Abrams

Listen to "Jonathan Abrams The Inside Story Of The Wire" on Spreaker. The definitive oral history of the iconic and beloved TV show The Wire, as told by the actors, writers, directors, and others involved in its creation Since its final episode aired in 2008, HBO's acclaimed crime drama The Wire has only become more popular and influential. The issues it tackled, from the failures of the drug war and criminal justice system to systemic bias in law enforcement and other social institutions, have become more urgent and central to the national conversation. The show's actors, such as Idris Elba, Dominic West, and Michael B. Jordan, have gone on to become major stars. Its creators and writers, including David Simon and Richard Price, have developed dedicated cult followings of their own. Universities use the show to teach everything from film theory to criminal justice to sociology. Politicians and activists reference it when discussing policy. When critics compile lists of the Greatest TV Shows of All Time, The Wire routinely takes the top spot. It is arguably one of the great works of art America has produced in the 20th century. But while there has been a great deal of critical analysis of the show and its themes, until now there has never been a definitive, behind-the-scenes take on how it came to be made. With unparalleled access to all the key actors and writers involved in its creation, Jonathan Abrams tells the astonishing, compelling, and complete account of The Wire, from its inception and creation through its end and powerful legacy.

4TK The Fourth Kingdom

Listen to "4TK The 4th Kingdom The International Journey" on Spreaker. When reality competition series contestants leave the stage for the last time, their fate is arguably unknown. Sure, every week the audience has the propensity to make or break their connection to the rest of the world, but once the final curtain call happens, it’s the talent that is the winning catalyst. For The Fourth Kingdom (better known as 4TK), their success following their respective experiences on Belgium’s The Voice is inimitable. Sebastian, Jaxon, Shane, and Kyle each forged their own respective paths prior to coming together. However, as a group, they’re unstoppable. Armed with their hit single “Broken” and a star-studded group of collaborators, get ready for the globe’s next Pop sensation, 4TK

Dan Barker

Listen to "Dan Barker Free Will Explained" on Spreaker. FREE WILL EXPLAINED asks us to ponder the questions: “do we have free will?” And, “if we don’t, why do we feel as if we do?” In a universe governed by impersonal laws of cause and effect, are you responsible for your actions? Former Christian minister Dan Barker (God: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction) unveils a novel solution to the question that has baffled scientists and philosophers for millennia. He outlines the concept of what he calls “harmonic free will,” a two-dimensional perspective that pivots the paradox on its axis to show that there is no single answer—both sides are right. Free will is a useful illusion: not a scientific, but a social truth.

Working Out The Echoes

Listen to "Caught Up In The Echo" on Spreaker. Radio station program directors always made it a point to ask their talent "Would you listen to yourself?" Not out of conceit but to place the thoughts of the creative on air talent in the very place the listen receives the talk over a song intro. Here in 2018 where broadcasting is a way of all for all people. Would you like reading your entries on social media? Could you be a fan or follower? I totally grasp why we post thoughts. Most are usually about the moment or would never pass company policy so you air your laundry via Twitter or Facebook. Which brings me to the question "What are you putting in the atmosphere that creates the echo?" Will what you are saying today become a huge part of your growing tomorrow? This has nothing to do with building a legacy. I believe we're all given lessons to learn from daily. What are you doing with yours? Are they seeds for a future harvest or is your field unprepared because there's too much change and nobody wants to waste time or energy on yesterdays fad.

Tony Moran

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Tony Moran Evolves With Sound" on Spreaker. The funniest thing about Global Dance Music is based on the rooting system of it's rightful place within the fixtures of fad, fact and fiction. Basically meaning there are still countries being introduced to it's behavior inside clubs and at small and large music festivals. Tony Moran is a generator of energy. Not only has he evolved with the sights and presentation but continues to explore newer areas that EDM and Dance have not tried. That requires a lot of face to face time with fans and followers as well as being in the clubs no matter where the location. His latest release is You're Good For Me.

Steve Aoki

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Steve Aoki Continues To Set Records" on Spreaker. Masterfully Steve Aoki has generated a lot of history to unfold and take shape in corners of the world where Global Dance is endlessly being introduced. That means he spends multiple hours laying out the ground work as well as flying from city to city. It has a huge positive impact on the genre of sound and it has taken its toll in other areas. Truthfully speaking he hasn't stopped the performance but he has taught himself to spend less time on that incredible stage. His latest release is Azukita.

Taylor James

Listen to "Taylor James From Samson" on Spreaker. Taylor James' many film and television credits include BLITZ for Lionsgate; MAMMA MIA for Universal; CHRISTMAS EVE for Unstuck; and JUSTICE LEAGUE for Warner Bros. His television credits include Material Girl and Hotel Babylon for BBC; Sirens and Red Dwarf for Channel 4; and Howard's Happy Place, for Idris Elba and SKY 1. Now he plays the iconic title role in PURE FLIX's biblical epic, SAMSON. Taylor launched his acting career on London's West End as an original cast member in the U.K. production of the musical Footloose, playing the iconic character of Willard Hewitt. Roles followed in international hits such as Guys and Dolls on stage and Mamma Mia, both on stage and film. Taylor's love for storytelling led him to work with classical texts such as The Duchess of Malfi at The Old Vic theatre and modern adaptations of period stories such as Danton's Death at the National Theatre, PIAF for the Donmar Warehouse and the Broadway hit The Little Dog Laughed. More recently, Taylor spent a season with the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company performing in both stage and film productions of The Winter's Tale, starring Dame Judi Dench and Sir Kenneth Branagh; and Romeo and Juliet, in the role of Prince Escalus, with Lily James and Richard Madden. ABOUT SAMSON, OPENING IN THEATERS FEBRUARY 16th From the creators of GOD'S NOT DEAD comes SAMSON, an action-packed biblical epic starring Billy Zane, Golden Globe winner Rutger Hauer and Jackson Rathbone and premiering nationwide Feb. 16. Samson's journey of passion, betrayal, and redemption inspires audiences to realize that life's failures need not define their future. "For anyone who ever wondered if they really could do what God called them to do, this film is for them," Pure Flix CEO Michael Scott said. SAMSON also features Lindsay Wagner, Caitlin Leahy and Taylor James as Samson.

Eternal Hunger

Listen to "Eternal Hunger Releases Monster" on Spreaker. In this age of Twitter speak and to the point texting there's more to Eternal Hunger than a Google description that reads: GRILLING ORCHESTRAL MUSIC WITH Trap, Dubstep, Drum & Bass & Glitch-Hop FOR THOSE WHO CRAVE FOR THE BASS. The more we talked the bigger the picture became. A solid musicians that dramatically brings a fresh new appeal to Trap. Hard edges with angelic female vocals or Hip Hop flavored repeats like those heard on the new release Monster. A pianist that brings his brand of beats to life in clubs and one day there has to be American festivals. One listen to Monster and others and you'll instantly start making connections to his sound being attached to movie soundtracks. He says yes. He wants to create many waves of sound that'll also be featured in commercial production.

Reach Toward Without Expectation

Listen to "Reaching Toward Without Expectation" on Spreaker. We're all guilty of it. We spend a lot of energy trying to predict the outcome of something that's been tucked in your thought process but today it's showtime. But before it arrives we waddle through a past we change and a future designed to do nothing but endlessly change. Getting through the mess requires a well focused thought process that looks lame to others because it's not about partying or eating incredible food and deserts. Reaching people to get a product in their hands has evolved into a sale where the client truly is smarter then the seller. The digital generation has rocked the business world because every product is available in any corner of the world at any time of the day or night. I didn't think I'd ever become an Amazon customer until the day I needed a new bottle of ink for my fountain pens and Staples and Office Depot could no longer provide. I keep going back to the company that's associated with the selling giant but I've never met a sales rep or store manager. I trust them without talking to them. No wonder when I walk into a store and an employee asks a question I quickly turn because I feel like I'm being attacked. "No help! I'm ok!" How then does local win in a world of two day delivery? It's more than putting a smile at the checkout line or tossing out buy one get one free deals. Businesses need to start reaching toward their customers without expectation. Stop selling and start knowing who your customer is. Know their name. Now their place on your block. Reach toward them.

Ryan Brahms

Listen to "Ryan Brahms The Process Of Music" on Spreaker. I think it's a natural thing for people to want to know where songs come from and singer songwriters like Ryan Brahms aren't afraid to express it. He says songs come from all sorts of places and how it feels after it's been written and produced is totally different. They always say songs are always changing and Ryan says they're always growing with you through good and bad times. Which is why he's heavily inspired by all the different types of music around him and everything in life in general. It's all about good vibes. Ryan's latest release is Love Dealer.

Demi Lovato

Listen to "Demi Lovato On Releasing Music" on Spreaker. It's not everyday that you get the opportunity to stare into the creative soul of Jay Z and simply ask "Which song would you release?" The master of Hip Hop and all things connected isn't going to put your steps on the wrong path. He knows the level of play on this present scene of music and no matter how many hits you've had before the connection he's going to put down the vibes of direction. It was a totally cool experience for Demi Lovato who's got a killer track out now titled Tell Me You Love Me. The video that comes with it is beyond the norm. She dove into this project to hit some serious subjects and ways to deal with the situation.

Tiesto

Listen to "Tiesto Remembers His Early Days" on Spreaker. I don't think there are two DJ stories the same. That first bite on a live stage usually inside some stinky dark hole in the wall. Tiesto always knew he wanted to spin because radio jocks always came across as having the time of their life. Once within the moments that live DJing brings to the forefront of your imagination that's when he was bitten a second time. This go around it was producing his own music. The latest release from Tiesto has him teamed up with Gucci Mane and Sevenn Boom.

Zedd

Listen to "Zedd And Maren Talk The Middle" on Spreaker. You can pump up the volume and pen out the right lyrics but that very rarely instantly becomes the main attraction inside the buds of fans and followers. Zedd took the extra time to layout the ground work to locate Maren Morris. He's a whole lot of dance and she's got some seriously cool rhythms within the four walls of Country. Their first ever song together is The Middle.

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 96

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 96" on Spreaker. Perception feels like a word that best represents assumption. Not so... Dictionary.com says "Perception is the ability to see, hear or become aware of something through the senses." Whereas assumption is accepted as true or as something that is certain to happen without there being proof. I don't know if it's funny or a lack of common sense but we invest in both words like it's a hot commodity. Only to face the price of disconnection at the destination. Through awareness we might see what could become but how we interpret the situation is an open door to walk toward assumption. We can rely on experience but with so many distractions in the everyday world where is there enough space to better understand the perception of history? No wonder we keep doing the same thing over and over. The physical path of growth is covered up and or lost in what we perceive. There is not true proper method of delivery. Its almost as if we've stopped questioning the process and expect success. How healthy is that? Research shows right? Not if perception and assumption are caught kissing in the corners of your unwritten chapters.

Jason Warrior

Listen to "Jason Warrior From The Four On FOX" on Spreaker. I'm shocked this hasn't happened more often but Jason Warrior is one of few singer songwriter performers that's been featured on two huge network music competitions. His latest being The Four on FOX. Jason Warrior is a contestant on The Voice. He was born and raised in Chicago. As a teenager, Jason traveled around the world with the famous Chicago-based gospel group Walt Whitman and the Soul Children. In 2014, Jason started a production company out of his college dorm called Dramatic Studios. Prior to joining the Voice, Jason created a 20-episode web series called The Truth about young people overcoming difficult issues in life.

Transparent With Yourself

Listen to "Transparent With Yourself" on Spreaker. Telling yourself that you suck or you're stupid isn't being transparent with yourself. It's being rude and or abusive. Having that physical connection of openness has to be a place of respect as well as deliverance. Just because your mind body and soul live with you doesn't give you permission to flake out. Too often we put too much attention on the dollar being more valuable then the talent. Goals are set way too high and very rarely do we see a return on the investment. You can't properly function if you're not being transparent with yourself. Yeah I get it. This is the kind of talk that managers and other bosses love to toss around. Managing yourself is just as important. Who's in control of your wisdom? Which department has your faith in order? How are the energy sources in the areas of keeping doubt, fear and shame away from the infrastructure of personal success. Do you even know who you are versus what you think you like? Walmart doesn't sell a new us. Which means we need to find better focus on your talent having the greater value and not the dollar. Break free and find you again.

R3hab

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update R3Hab Is All Out Global" on Spreaker. It's an honest question. While growing globally does the artist have to reshape their sights and sounds for each country they move through? Not everybody's into the heavy deep bass beats of Hip Hop and House comes with several layers of inspiration that can easily be touched up with simple eye connections to those in attendance. For R3hab he's been studying the physical connection between Latin beats and those being master mixed by some of the most creative producers in France. He's proving there's an art to being the daily student. He's on rBeatz Radio with Mike Williams Lullabye.

4TK The Fourth Kingdom

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update 4TK Reachs Beyond The Voice" on Spreaker. It's pretty easy to say The Voice is a weekly music competition. In between the beats and lyrics the artists are collaborating. The show has become it's own level of discovery. One of the first super acts to leap off that stage is Belgium's The Fourth Kingdom (4TK). They've entered the global music scene by way of utilizing every shape of marketing, from writing and collaborating with outside sources each song carries with it a texture of connection. Wait until you step into their world of fashion. 4TK is setting a new high standard of appearance while maintaining an extremely healthy social media vibe. They're on rBeatz Radio with Broken.

John Fugelsang

Listen to "John Fugelsang Season Two Of Page Six TV" on Spreaker. Actor and comedian John Fugelsang has been murdered on CBS drama "CSI," debated David Duke & Jerry Falwell on Bill Maher's show and once interviewed two Beatles on different continents in the same week. Fugelsang, who hosts "Tell Me Everything" weekdays on SiriusXM Insight #121, has been a regular on CNN, MSNBC, FOX News and hosted "Viewpoint" on Current TV and co-hosted "America's Funniest Videos" on ABC with Daisy Fuentes.

Don't On A Map

Listen to "Dot On The Map" on Spreaker. The upside of being a daily writer is getting the incredible opportunity to step back a few chapters or decades and see how far the mind body and soul have grown. The downside is having to endure what each were forced to walk through while pushing their journey toward this present place of now. We're all creatures of habit. If something gets twisted we'll usually act it out the same way. But what if the dot on the map becomes a newer set of seeds planted within a different layer of soil? It's perfectly everyday to plant the tiny things and move forward, totally forgetting the physical steps and or attempt. But as a daily writer there's a documented dot on the map. A place not necessarily designed for change but rather an open window that simply gives you peace of mind. A couple of years are pressed into the history books and you return to that page. Not because you're snooping on yourself. It's just happens. That dot on the map says more about you today by way of how far you've grown or have stayed away. Head doctors endlessly try to get their patients to write stuff down. Throw it away then take on the day. With so many distractions it becomes too easy to get sidetracked by other things and demands. The idea of wanting to take shelter or grow gets lost in the center of a crumpled up sheet of thoughts now sitting in a landfill. Try daily writing. Open your path. Teach your inner self that you aren't the one causing the troubles. Learn to work as a team and grow in ways that a tiny dot on a map kept alive in a book with so many darn pages.

MK

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update MK Pushes The Detroit Sound Forward" on Spreaker. For so many decades the sights and sounds of being a regional performer has helped shape generations of music fans and lovers. Through the evolution of fad, fashion and the internet most of us can't tell where any particular performer is from. I'd say one of the last regional displays was during the early days of Hip Hop where you had Diddy in North East, Luther in Florida and NWA pumping up the vibes in California. One place we can't leave out is the always present Detroit circuit. Kid Rock to Redd it's been a driving force that's put a lot of energy at live performances that also include DJ's. MK is one of them. His brilliant behavior on the twin spins is taking that classic Detroit sound and putting a modern dent in it's place in history. MK is on rBeatz Radio with 17.

Louise Carver

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Louise Carver Accepts Change" on Spreaker. We experience it everyday. Music changes. In every direction it grows. Singer/songwriters and performers will always tell you that you can't predict the movement. The daily goal is to stay true to the journey moving forward. Louise Carver not only feels the evolution of sound moving around her but bends her path to include the depth of what's present. She's endlessly on board with the unexpected which opens her creative flow to includes the multiple genres delivered everyday. Getting to that point has required a lot of time in front of an every changing live audience. She's currently teamed up with Joe Bermudez on rBeatz Radio with the song Crazy enough. She's a Multi-award winning artist who's been a consistent presence on the South African Top 40 since 1996. That's when she debuted with the single “It Don’t Matter” which reached No. 1 across South African regional and National radio.

Derek Thompson

Listen to "Derek Thompson Hit Makers" on Spreaker. As "Atlantic" Senior Editor DEREK THOMPSON writes in HIT MAKERS: How to Succeed in an Age of Distraction - if you think a mega-hit movie, song, or app came out of nowhere to become a word-of-mouth success in today’s crowded media environment, you’re missing the real story. Applying cutting edge science to stories of hits across the decades, including recent sensations, Thompson reveals how each blockbuster actually has a secret history - of power, influence, dark broadcasters, and passionate cults that turn some new products into cultural phenomena. From the dawn of impressionist art to the future of Facebook, from small Etsy designers to the origin of Star Wars, HIT MAKERS is a captivating tour through the last century of pop culture and the most valuable currency of the twenty-first century—people’s attention. Original, fascinating, and deeply entertaining, HIT MAKERS uncovers the hidden psychology of why we like what we like and reveals the economics of cultural markets that invisibly shape our lives. Shattering the sentimental myths of hit-making that dominate pop culture and business, Thompson shows quality is insufficient for success and nobody has “good taste.” Some of the most popular products in history were one bad break away from utter failure. The consumers that matter the most aren’t the early adopters but rather their friends, followers, and imitators. It may be a new world but there are some enduring truths to what audiences and consumers want. People love a familiar surprise: a product that is bold yet sneakily recognizable.

Brian Q Quinn

Listen to "Brian Q Quinn From Victor Crowley" on Spreaker. Dark Sky Films has announced the official release date of VICTOR CROWLEY, the surprise fourth film in the fan-favorite Hatchet franchise. The film will be released on VOD, Digital and Blu-ray and DVD on February 6, 2018. Kept tightly under wraps for over two years, the slasher reboot unexpectedly debuted this past August. The highly anticipated release was shown in theaters across the country in October as part of the "Victor Crowley Road Show." Set a decade after the events of the series' first three films, VICTOR CROWLEY reunites Hatchet mainstays Kane Hodder (Friday the 13th 7 -X's Jason Voorhees) and Parry Shen (Better Luck Tomorrow) for an all-new, horrifying journey into the haunted, blood-drenched bayou. In 2007, over forty people were brutally torn to pieces in Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp. Over the past decade, lone survivor Andrew Yong's claims that local legend Victor Crowley was responsible for the horrific massacre have been met with great controversy, but when a twist of fate puts him back at the scene of the tragedy, Crowley is mistakenly resurrected and Yong must face the bloodthirsty ghost from his past. VICTOR CROWLEY's ensemble cast also features Laura Ortiz (2006's The Hills Have Eyes),Dave Sheridan (Scary Movie), and Brian Quinn (truTV's "Impractical Jokers"). Writer/director Adam Green proudly returns to the director's chair of his series that, upon debuting in 2007, was energetically touted as a return to "old school American horror," and whose maniacal fan-favorite villain quickly secured a place among slasher royalty.

Sacred Ground

Listen to "Sacred Ground" on Spreaker. You'll hear me say this a thousand times, "We were all born to be creative." Each of us have the tools to take what's normal today to a much higher level of vision meeting demand. I'm extremely guilty of trying to figure out why we have down time. Those moments when being creative is a horrid process. We all know people that were once extremely talented in the gift shop. Then it happened. Like a light switch all that made them creative went away. It's because someone other than them self took over their sacred ground. There's a weird thing about being human, we think it's completely natural to walk on the very soil of someone else's sacred ground. I'm not talking your yard or favorite place in the forest. That zone your mind body and soul reach for within the within. Meditation has permission to access that area of your energy. People don't. Nor should you allow anyone in. Here's where we get lost. Trust. We trust others to hold the keys to the front door of our sacred space. The first reaction is to get copies of those keys just in case you or they drop them along life's everyday path. And when you least expect, everything held within your sacred area has taken on the image of those you trust and not the individual you are. Understanding where your old self is can easily be located in the drive of those closest to your dreams. Time truly isn't moving too fast. We spend way too much time trying to catch up to a past shaped by sacred ground takeovers. Protect your space and everything growing with it.

Anggun

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Anggun Talks Lyrics And Beats" on Spreaker. Yeah we get it. Time moves pretty quickly. It's extremely difficult to measure the distance we've traveled in such a short amount of space. Then again look at where the world of music was standing barely twenty years ago. It was about getting the latest CD's into the hands of fans and followers. Then the internet with music swapping changed the entire path singers, songwriters and performers depended on to keep their personal lives financed. Anggun has been an active participant and still believes a faithful connection is present. She calls it harmony. The elements that make music a moment is a treasured arrival. She's a huge feature on rBeatz Radio with the song What We Remember.

Sabrina Carpenter

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Sabrina Carpenter Is All About Her Fans" on Spreaker. With so many styles and fashions available for fans and followers to support the difficult part of the process is how the artist can maintain the nearly hard to reach connection. Is it the lyrics, the beats, the Tweets or the photos on Instagram that pushes the separate sides together? For Sabrina Carpenter is making sure that no matter where she travels she spends a lot of face to face time with those purchasing the music and tickets. Her fan base has officially been dubbed the Carpenters and their strength is extremely impressive to the point where some will jump into the car and spend the next ten hours getting to the stage that'll soon be presenting the music. Sabrina Carpenter is all over rBeatz Radio. She's teamed up with Lost Kings to release First Love.

Bryan Ferry

Listen to "Bryan Ferry From Roxy Music" on Spreaker. Every so often an album comes along that changes not just the rules but the game, opening new possibilities for music. In America in the late 1960s, The Velvet Underground & Nico was one such record. And in Britain, released on June 16, 1972, the self-titled debut album by Roxy Music would be another. From the first lines of the opening track, “Re-Make/Re-Model” -- “I tried, but I could not find a way, looking back all I did was look away” -- to the final “Should make the cognoscenti think” lyric of the closing song, “Bitters End,” it was immediately clear that Roxy Music’s first record was an album like no other. By the time the album was released, the band had fewer than ten gigs to their name, they had no two tracks in their repertoire that were alike, and critics simply couldn’t pin down their influences. As Richard Williams said at the time in Melody Maker, “If Roxy Music go very much further, they'll be one of the great success stories of modern times.” 45 years later, with the group’s involvement, we get an opportunity to assess the album and listen as Roxy evolved and developed. The 3CD/DVD Roxy Music box set, to be released February 2 by Virgin/UMe, provides a thrilling insight into the world of Roxy Music in 1971/1972, starting with the demo tape that caught the attention of writer Richard Williams that ultimately led to their deal with EG Management and then Island Records.

Directing Our Way From Direct Deposit

Listen to "Directing Our Way from Direct Deposit" on Spreaker. A friend wrote a very beautiful note to his wife on Facebook this morning. It was very open. Very touching and truly a lesson to be learned. Creative people have this weird way of thinking what we bring forward by way of art is conversation. But that's not truly the way it works. How many times have we heard people talk about their interpretation of the presentation? Without a voice being present we pretty much sit inside a cup of assumption. I wrote to the friend voicing his true love and respect for his wife. I wanted him to know how inspiring it was to for me to read his words. The hardest silence to identify is hidden the heart of those born to create. Just because the painting on the wall or song sounds fresh and vibrant doesn't always mean that's what's being felt. It requires an incredible wife or husband to reach beyond the moment to hear the truer voice. I'm a softy when it comes to a man admitting that he loves his wife and couldn't be where he is today without her. Such openness teaches us to bridge the gaps with love and support and not try and figure things out on our own. Another friend wrote to me this morning. He talked about how he was penning out a few bars of gratefulness and wanted to share it. My response was so totally me because I'm just weird. I said, "It's about staying true to each other. It's about growing together as a team. God never said that we were supposed to do this alone. We are to grow in a field that will one day be his harvest."

Nipsey Hussle

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Nipsey Hussle Is Still An Indie" on Spreaker. One of the greatest things about today's music front is how incredibly confident the layers of vibe makers are about getting into the business as an Indie Artists. It's no longer a true performers journey to pour a ton of cash into the four walls that make up a very classy recording studio. It's fun to be there. It's probably going to give you a better than awesome sight and sound. But modern day technology creates a path of success by opening the door for writers and performers as well producers to vamp up in the privacy of their own footsteps. So what does that mean when one of the masters of Indie music signs with Atlantic Records. Nipsey Hussle knows in his soul he still that guy to look up to and toward. He's still very much in control of the layout and plan. He's all over rBeatz and OUI Global Radio with Last Time I Checc'd.

Ralphi Rosario

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Ralphi Rosario The Roots Of House" on Spreaker. There are some pretty heavy vibes circulating from the most secret corners of the House circuit. That sound is pushing itself beyond the boom makers and making itself present on the streets of everyday. Someone who's been heavily attached to its rightful place in our ears is longtime master mixer and producer Ralphi Rosario who knows the true roots of House aren't just a collection of beats but rather a roundup of soul filled vibes that continue to electrify the scene with its deep structure and these days even a more fulfilled history which makes listening to it a hearty choice of celebration. Ralphi is on rBeatz Radio with Cold.

Collins Drive

Listen to "Don De Leaumont From Collins Drive" on Spreaker. Atlanta based folk rock/trio Collins Drive was born of a chance encounter that would change the lives of three musicians forever. After dishearteningly trying to put a band together, folksinger/songwriter Don de Leaumont figured his time in bands was over and was ready to continue on as a solo performer. Bassist Allison Shockley found Don’s nearly expired Craig’s List ad and reached out to him about maybe starting something. The two met for drinks and Shockley told de Leaumont that she had a great drummer in mind named Mike Satterlee. The three got together soon after to jam and the energy was nothing short of electrifying. The connection was made and Collins Drive was born. Inspired by artists such as The Band, Whiskeytown, The Allman Brothers Band, CSN, and Kevn Kinney to name a few, Collins Drive has earned themselves a steadily growing fanbase due to their live performances at such renowned Atlanta venues as Red Light Café, Moonshadow Tavern, and Smith’s Olde Bar. Collins Drive’s songs on their latest album tell stories and paint pictures of Southern living. Life through the eyes of a washed up bluesman that never got his time (Drunk on Sunday), a Chapel Hill woman waiting in the rain for her bus home (Cemetery Angel), and returning to the town where you grew up (Ghost Town) are just a few examples of this. There’s nothing complex and there are no deep, hidden meanings to these songs. They are just little slices of life put into songs that are easy to grasp on to and easy to connect with. Just give them a listen and maybe you’ll find yourself in some of these scenes and stories. Collins Drive is a band that just wants to bring their favorite kinds of music into one place and create a sound and songs that everyone can connect with at some level. Collins Drive’s songs tell stories and paint pictures of Southern living whether it is from the eyes of a washed up bluesman that never got his time to a woman waiting in the rain for her bus home. There’s nothing complex and there are no deep, hidden meanings to these songs. They are just little slices of life put into songs that are easy to grasp on to and easy to connect with. Just give them a listen and maybe you’ll find yourself in some of these scenes and stories.

R H Stavis

Listen to "R H Stavis Sister Of Darkness" on Spreaker. The world's only non-denominational exorcist tells her astonishing true story: a riveting chronicle of wrestling entities from infected souls, showing how pain and trauma opens us to attachment from forces that drain our energy . . . and can even destroy our humanity. As a secular exorcist, Rachel H. Stavis has cleansed thousands of tormented people, from small children and Hollywood moguls to stay-at-home moms and politicians. But for many years, the horror screenwriter and novelist denied her gift. As a little girl, she began to see "monsters" floating around her bedroom or attached to other children. Told it was only her imagination, Rachel learned to ignore the things she saw. But a series of events in adulthood forced her to acknowledge her unique ability and embrace her power to heal. Since then, Rachel has dedicated her life to helping others cast off the forces feeding off of us. Performing her services pro-bono, she quietly worked in the shadows, until she unknowingly revealed her work to a journalist, who told her story to NPR. A unique look at demonology removed from religious dogma, Sister of Darkness recounts Rachel's journey to becoming an exorcist and chronicles some of her most extreme cleansings cases, including those that put her and her clients in peril. Going deep into her world, we meet the diverse range of people she has helped-young, old, famous and not-in gripping stories of danger and sometimes sadness, that are ultimately about redemption. Rachel teaches us that there are a diverse range of "entities" surrounding us-some of these are playful or misguided, while some are dangerous and harmful. She introduces each of them and explains their power, helping us understand what is attacking and hurting us, and what we can do to protect ourselves. We may not be able to see them, but they're always there. Smoke and shadows, ghoulish features or lifelike forms, there are the demons, or what Rachel calls "entities," that float around us, or even attach themselves to our bodies, feeding off our fears and our negative energy. As the world's only nondenominational exorcist, Rachel has found herself at the crux of the spiritual crossroads of thousands of clients all of whom she's been able to save by ridding them of their spiritual baggage, and getting at the root causes of their low frequency at the same time. Stavis realized her gift as young child, but for years she pushed it away, wishing for it to disappear as her mother dismissed it as a call for attention, the lies of a schoolgirl. After years of denying her gift for communicating with the spirit world, she fearlessly turned what she once regarded as a curse into a blessing to help those in need. Stavis has cleansed thousands of tormented people, from small children to musicians, politicians, and everyone in between, quietly performing her work in obscurity, until now. In Sister of Darkness, Rachel Stavis takes us on a journey into an unseen world, describes the diverse range of entities that surround us, the Spirit Guides and Ancient Ancestors that come to her aid to reveal the root causes of your pain, and what you can do to protect yourself from creating a hospitable environment. A unique look at demonology removed from religious dogma, Sister of Darkness is the true story of Rachel's journey to becoming an exorcist. Chronicling some of her most extreme and interesting cleansings, the hows and the whys of what she does, and stories of danger and of triumph, Stavis creates a world that is at times frightening, eye-opening, and utterly enthralling. Sister of Darkness brings to light a world ruled by destruction, chaos and fear, and the woman who bravely fights to protect those who seeks her out.

Miss Krystle

Listen to "Miss Krystle Releases Revelant On Video" on Spreaker. In an age of instant access to all things music and video new ideas never get old. Miss Krystle takes her song Revelant to a higher atmosphere of transition. Putting this video out there required some elbow grease and long nights. The kind of stuff that fans and followers never truly get to experience unless you're sitting down to have a conversation with Miss Krystle who takes us deep behind the scenes with the physical layout of the video and how it's inspired her to walk a new path of keeping those who've backed her up more in touch with the process and journey.

Tom Hunt

Listen to "Tom Hunt Killer Choice" on Spreaker. Acquired by Berkley in a two-book deal, KILLER CHOICE has earned praise from Lee Child and William Landay (Defending Jacob); stellar pre-publication reviews; and multiple comparisons to Harlan Coben, Joseph Finder, and Mary Kubica. Hunt, an award-winning ad copywriter living in NYC, wrote the novel after reading a newspaper article about a sick girl who needed experimental surgery, and her family’s desperate attempt to raise the money. In KILLER CHOICE, Gary Foster’s wife, Beth, is gravely ill, in need of cancer treatment they can’t afford. But just as Beth’s time is running out, a strange man approaches Gary and offers the money he needs, on one condition—he kill someone, no questions asked. “This outstanding domestic suspense debut by an award-winning advertising copywriter is at once complex and direct. . . . readers are craftily put in the position of considering what extremes they would go to in the same hopeless situation. . . . Recommended for fans of fast-paced thrillers that pose moral dilemmas (Lee Child, Harlan Coben, Joseph Finder). A real nail-biter.”—Booklist, STARRED Review Two weeks before Valentines’ Day, KILLER CHOICE begs the question: how far would you go for the love of your life?

Chad Millman

The Lyrics From Billy's Forest Chapter 95

Listen to "The Lyrics From Billys Forest Chapter 95" on Spreaker. We face those walls all too many times. I still can't figure out why we don't just turn and walk away. Unless it's because there have been several times in our everyday challenges where the grass has been greener on the other side. But getting back becomes the lifelong challenge that feels like defeat. Now lets turn it around. What if we are deciding not to cross through to the other side of the wall? We've decided that we are comfortable right where we are. But God wants you and needs you to help someone locate victory on the other side. How do you bend or react? Do you set it aside knowing the energy is only going to get louder and stronger? Or do you allow your presence in the now to become part of the process of required growth?

Timmy Trumpet

Listen to "rBeatz Music Update Timmy Trumpet Keeps True" on Spreaker. At the age of four the trumpet was handed down to yet another generation. Timmy's father and grandfather were both incredible attractions on live stages. What makes Timmy Trumpet stand out is his way of taking his passion for dance and allowing real instruments breathe inside the realms of digital delivery. He's all over rBeatz Radio and OUI Global Radio with Deja Vu.
