Consider promo (promotion) track from the ole Rainforest Cowboy!  Sometimes its hard to be heard and small injustices go noticed.  I like to create songs - real stories to a beat - to help put a light on what matters in life - connections, hope, working together.  To this end I often write about food banks, community centers, homelessness, despair and much more.  If you have a story to share, personal experiences or just ideas please let me know.  It can be about where you live, your city, your nation, happy or sad - its your story, I just add the beat.

Vertrauensprobe - Test of Trust

All my love to the amazing Philippine "Overseas Foreign Workers" (OFW) whom sacrifice so, so much in order to provide for their families - especially the children.  My wife was a OFW when we met (she is a nurse/RN) .. we will be exploring OFW's much more in future tracks.  You're all in my heart (black-hat tip to the OFW)s).  In this touching song a OFW mother working very hard in a factory hopes her son will hear her heart under the stars and will sing.  Very emotional - a song which I hope touches the hearts of OFWs.

The Yorkminster Citadel of the Salvation, Army in Toronto, Canada runs many programs and provides vital community services.  This is the story of one of their community services - the local food bank - and the volunteers working there to help people.  I'll be uploading various mixes in the future and some spotlights as I think it's important to become aware t only of what is being done but the many warm, loving people whom make it possible.  I'm sure they would greatly appreciate any donations and if in the Toronto, Canada area I'm sure they could use your help as a volunteer.

Yorkminster Citadel - The Salvation Army

Steve runs the Yorkminster Citadel in Toronto, Canada and is an amazing, wonderful, warm man.  That said, he plays the tuba as I had when I was much younger (I majored in music and played Tuba in the school orchestra/band for 4 years before organ/keyboards).  It takes great dedication and talent.  Anyone whom has played musical instrument(s) understands the amount of practice which goes into the craft -- musicians really love what they do they and it really is a work of love requiring great dedication.  Every musician is this way, its a passion, a love of music which drives them.  Steve is an musical artist at playing his tuba!  Steve of course knows how to clean, tune, polish, hold and pick-up his Tuba, he is after all, Steve the tuba-pickup artist.  What were YOU thinking?!?!

영원한 사랑의 노래 - The Song of Eternal Love

I'm a 61 year old born and raised in Canada.  My parents were both Austrian (Europe).  I'm married and my wife was born and raised in Luzon, Philippines.  Since 1997 I also live in the Philippines.  I have many interests: motorcycles, ebikes and bikes, horses, agri-forestry, computers, writing, song-writing, Chinese-Donghua (and some Japanese-Anime), inventions, doing the impossible, repairing things, projects, esoteric and much more.  While many take one path in life I love exploring and the roads seldom used.

I'll get an email address up - if you have a story to tell let the ole Rainforest Cowboy know.  I love to write about peoples' experiences, their cities and nations, hobbies, hopes and fears.  Maybe you're in love, promoting a charity, or missing a lost one - if you would like to share, I'll make a song about it.
