"She" wins Platinum Auddy award for hit potential at uPlaya and more

Ahoy Shipmates!

LOTS of updates are coming but I wanted to quickly mention a new music site that analyzes songs based on hit potential scientifically. I dont know much about it yet but its called uPlaya. That actually sounds weird to even me, but for what its worth as I always do, chipping away at this music thing, I posted my song "She" not expecting much...and it got the highest award of Platinum for the song.

From the site:

"The underlying patterns of this song are similar to songs that have been hits for a long time."

What i realized more than anything is that MY musical adventure is a choose-your-own adventure, and you are the ones turning the pages and making the decisions. YOU are the Captain! Really Stormy Strong is about us all taking a voyage together, because my music is definitely inspired and crafted by not only making music I love, but with the feedback and direct touching of my life of others.

I definitely believe in my musical vision and continue to work on it nonstop. More importantly, I know you do too and I thank you for your continued support. This has been CRUCIAL. While I think this uPlaya website/technology is cool, in the end it comes down to real people sharing their opinions with their friends and family based on a gut feel, or rather how the music has effected them. So I ask that please if you have some time, please share my songs with someone you know that maybe you have not in the past. Or someone you think might enjoy the songs.

Also the best ways to communicate with me these days are via Facebook here or email me here directly!

Thank you for your support! Id like to thank my wife Wendy and daughters Brooke and Meadow for their support and love of music. Also Reuben, Kia and Chen.
