I have (1) sister (Paula & (4) brothers (Lyle, Kip, Ricky & Ravon). The story of our lives is that we've been separated since my mother's passing & now we're together after some (30) years. The passing of our brother Charles in '06 taught us some hard lesssons. We know how important family is & how important it is to communicate. Also, how important it is to trust God, each other & ourselves individually & to surround ourselves w/like minded people. We've found that being talented is not enough, but we must allow God to use the gift to the glory of God. The gift of song is precious & to have the opportunity to share it through original music/songs showcases these wonderful works. (4) projects: "Love"('84), "Vision & A Message"('96), "Tragedy"('07) & "On The Battlefield"('08) testify to the glory of God & his working in our lives. As songwriter, it blesses me to have my "family" bring "life" to the compositions. Weekly rehearsals & concerts are like get togethers where we catch up on the happenings. '09 saw our partnership w/the Tate Music Group & the industry marketing of our music & ministry w/the release of the "Family & Friends" project. '09/February saw my reconnecting w/Shirley Caesar at her Wednesday night Bible Study. Just hanging out w/her is gr8.  Shirley along working w/Bazzel Creek Bapt. Ch. has brought me full circle w/2 parts of my life earlier.  Now, 2010 has opened the door for a Minister of Music position @West Durham Baptist Church on Athens St, Durham, NC w/Pastor Terry Thomas.  Really looking forward 2 what God is going 2 do w/us together.  You can also catch me @St. Paul AME in Raleigh on the second & fourth Sundays @8am. Currently, the siblings r working on Daddy's new project 2 b released spring '11 & our next project for 2012. God is great!
