Bio:I am a classically trained Inspirational Reggae/Soul Singer/Songwriter currently based in Los Angeles, California who has toured the United States, Canada, Europe and the Caribbean several times. My music combines jazz, gospel and rhythm & blues influences and focuses on lyrical storytelling and simple melodies with the emphasis being put on inspiring my audience. I started out at the age of eight as a gospel music boy wonder, opening on tours for prominent gospel acts. One ovation lasted for 10 minutes. I also had a long stint as one of the foremost cabaret acts on Jamaica’s famous North Coast hotel circuit, which is where almost all the famous Jamaican performers honed their performing skills while they were under the radar of international renown. In August 2004 I migrated to the United States and have since that time performed several times in Fredonia, NY, Rochester, NY, Miami, Fl, Nashville, TN and in New York City earning thunderous ovations at prominent venues such as Bar 4 in Park Slope, Brooklyn and at the Sidewalk Café in the East Village. I was actually booked to return to do a full length show the first time I showed up at the latter venue and sang 2 of my original compositions at an open mic. This is unprecedented at this venue. This is typical of the reaction to my music around New York City and elsewhere.
I recently released the first single “Makes Me Stronger” on iTunes http://itunes.apple.com/us/
Ringtone Coming Soone coming soon.
