Thank you so much for your interest in my music making
The most appreciated way you can support me during these lockdown times, where our industry has been completely shut down, is …
- purchase a copy of my album The Courage of a Dreamer
- comment/like/retweet/share posts on my social•media•platforms
- watch/like/comment/subscribe to my YouTube channel/videos.
It gives me motivation to connect and hear from you. To keep going in these times when it is impossible to work with others, to perform live. To earn a living under usual circumstances.
I am always available to coach/mentor you if I can help in any way.
Want a Q&A for yourself, your group, students? Get in touch!
Stay safe and take care. Blessings!
