I am grateful to have had the support of these great musicians in paying tribute to Dolly Parton's song for the Bongo Boy Records tribute album! I have been doing Ozzy impersonation for many years and for some strange reason the Creator has endowed me with an uncanny ability to imitate Ozzy's vocal sound. Any correspondence is welcome, please email to [email protected]

ABOUT MY NEW EXCITEMENT FOR INDIE MUSIC AND MY CREATIVE RENAISSANCE
I have always been a songwriter and creative writer, artist, and muse, scribbled on notepads, recorded on tape, computer, or cell phone, just trying to capture the idea. I've played music my whole life, helped others with their projects, played hundreds of gigs. Creating and completing my own original music did not really start until our band, 3 Days In The Grave, was nominated for Rock Band Of The Year 2017, Then again in 2018 for Rock Song Of The Year, 2019 and 2020 for Rock Group Of The Year by The Josie Independent Music Awards in Nashville, TN. Many thanks to the Josie Network for their undying support of Indie Artists! And many thanks to my bandmates from 3 Days In The Grave for sticking it out for the long haul. These are the only musicians I have ever played with who have continued with their commitment to a band and their music.
After the 2018 Josie Awards, I was inspired by a young woman in recovery, to write a song about her. I asked my friend, and rock music legend, Mike Pinera (Blues Image, Iron Butterfly, Alice Cooper, Classic Rock All Stars) to listen to the song that I had recorded onto my cell phone. He loved the song and offered to help with his guitar playing. I was honored that he offered, being the accomplished, legendary musician that he is. We recorded that song with Dennis Renick of RockZion Records, Hermosa Beach, CA. I didn't realize it at the time, but it started the process of what became the album, 'Face To Face' released 4/3/2020. I then recorded the remaining 5 songs with Keith Lynch, who also is a phenomenal guitarist (Bill Ward's Solo Project, Keith Lynch Music) as well as recording engineer. Since then, we have recorded and released four more singles, 'Better For Who' and 'Christmas Star 2020' (2021), 'Let The People Be Free' (2022), and 'OM I'm Comin' Home' (2023) You can checkout Keith Lynch at keithlynch.com
Attending the Josie Awards show and meeting so many positive, uplifting, and spirited, independent artists motivated me to resume pursuit of my own creative musical ideas, and before the 2019 show, I had a recording of my first song, Elisabét.
This powerful desire to fulfill my songwriting aspirations was again set afire by my attendance at the first annual ISSA Awards Show (International Singer/Songwriter Association) in Atlanta, GA in August 2019. These experiences have led me to meet a host of talent the world wide, supportive indie artists who inspire and motivate me daily to persist and accomplish my musical ideas and goals. One artist in particular, the fabulous, award winning, Pakistani artist/guitarist Imran Ahmed, asked me to collaborate with him on his song 'Trapped Within'. I was honored to put the vocal track on the song. His video of the song got us a nomination for Video of the Year at the 2019 ISSA Awards in Atlanta, GA. Since then, I have recorded the vocal track on 5 of his songs, and we are continuing to collaborate on more, as we have enjoyed a symbionic musical relationship. He is also featured on the song, 'Sing For The Common Man', on Bongo Boy Records with a screaming lead guitar intro! The music video can be viewed at youtu.be/VqIlLt8Sl_w
