I was only 6 or 7 years old as I watched in awe, a service called "The Door" which happened in the late 70's to early 80's at my church in Wickenburg, AZ. The band that played on Sunday morning had this special service on Friday nights where they cranked-it-up and played Christian rock songs. They even had colored lights to add the ambience of a standard local rock show. The drummer played and sang too! I remember thinking..."I wanna do that!" And I did. I've been in several bands starting at age 14 & have enjoyed those experiences immensely, but never ventured out in any serious way onto my own musical path. In my mid to late 30's I began learning to play a guitar, which led me to play at a small town church in Kingman AZ. for a brief time, but that was still playing songs someone else wrote. I needed to get this music inside of me OUT! Now I'm starting this new journey & hope that someone will be blessed by it or some of it speaks to them in a positive way.
