Renaissance 2.0
Eva Cassidy is probably the best singer you’ve never heard of before. She tragically died in 1996 at the age of 33 before ever really achieving major success, so her name is not a common household name. However, those who have heard her voice will never forget her. I have to admit that I did…
I watched a cool special on PBS where acts from the 60s performed their hits (most of them in their 60s themselves!). It was so wild seeing them young in video clips and then today performing live. Their bodies might’ve aged but their hearts are forever young thanks to music. Here’s Peter and Gordon from…
My brother is living proof that true musicians play music their entire lives no matter what. He’s a family man with several kids and owns his own successful audio and home automation business but still makes the time to practice with his band and perform live gigs on a regular basis!

Here’s a great song called “Forgiveness” by Jim Witter that really makes you realize how stupid and cruel it is to hold onto grudges and not forgive those people who have hurt us. Here are the words: Forgiveness (J.Witter/B. Tomberlin) Little Mickey Johnson was my very best friend In first grade we swore we’d stay…
