I am honored to have been bestowed with such gifted musicians and music and to be revered with such respect among my peers. Thanks so much for your love and support as we continue to rise to the top of the music industry. I am currently fielding investors and/or partners to make HALSHACK RECORDS a reality.
I have partners who are former major label reps as we all come from a major label background in some capacity. I earned a partnership with REVERBNATION about 3 years ago through the former owner of the company Lou Plaia. He and his partners after 15 years of investment into the indie music community sold the company to Bandlab! A Singaporean company. I have continued that relationship as most reps still work for the company. They have fed me hundreds of new bands through their "Opportunities network" as well as my contacts with Belinda Carlisle and Eminem and Lil Zane and Nic Collins (son of Phil Collins) in his own band as a drummer as he is also the current touring drummer for Genesis! Im very very honored to have these credits!
We recently put heavy focus on the radio station for ZENO FM! So far it has received massively strong positive reviews and people have logged thousands of hours of listening for the station in a short time! AWESOME!!

You know how how it feels to be "All In" on something or the thought "Never" crosses your mind. Well the thought crossed my mind that I would go All in on creating you a show about words all and never for this week's shows for KERB and MXTR-FM! My library is full of words of wisdom and songs with lyrical tales that will have you wondering why the radio and labels are not all about these bands and why they never bother to look for "new" quality sounds from the past to discover the future of the industry. It's a shame that too many small bands have never been lifted out of the trenches that have given their hearts and souls to their craft, you could say they went ALL IN!
