Musician, Song Writer:
Started my music journey when I was 9, my dad built me my first guitar. He was a shaper at Gibson Kalamazoo, and build the guitar in a closet size closet in our one bedroom apartment. Started writing Music and Lyrics in 1975, player in garage band and bars. Never started working wit my catalog until 2020 during Covid. Started engineering and producing my music under im5150 Studio and artist name im5150ru. This allowed me to start releasing my music on streaming platforms in 2024.
