SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I have been making music since I was born. I do it because I love it and it is my passion! I am lucky to have the talent God has given me and I intend to make music forever. I have already accomplished more in this crazy music business than most musicians even get close to so I feel lucky. But I am always working on the new group, using my connects to further my projects. I am releasing my first SOLO CD next Week under the name BRISTOW! I Just finished the first video for the first single and I am pretty happy. I really need some opinions on this music so I can get a better idea who the primary audience will be. I spend too much time in the studio so I am not out much at all. Please feel free to give me your best opinions who YOU think the target audience will be! Thank You!!

Say Something
Say Something Track number: 1 Year: 2013 Album: Cheaper Than Therapy Genre: Other
I wrote this to my oldest daughter who seemed to have issues with me suddenly at age 14 after I came home from living in Hawaii for a year for work. No matter how hard I try to talk it out with her, she just doesnt want to work it out it seems. This is my desperate attempt to wake her up to the fact that I love her always and any problems between us need to get worked out quickly so the good times can roll on.........

DarkSide
DarkSide Track number: 2 Year: 2013 Album: Cheaper Than Therapy Genre: Other
The first single from my first SOLO CD, DarkSide was written several years ago when I was out on a Saturday night in Atlanta at a club called 'The Chamber'. If you know it then you'll know it was a BDSM club that attracted people from ALL walks of life! I saw a dude dragging his girlfriend around by a Leash attached to a collar and suddenly - "I COULD BE EVERYTHING YOU NEED AND SHE SAYS, PAIN AND PLEASURE PLEASE, AS WE SERVE EACH OTHERS NEEDS."....Were in my head. I grabbed a napkin and wrote em down finishing the song later that night. I am thinking chicks that are into the book, "50 Shades Of Grey" would like this tune - so far I haven't met a woman that didn't like it!
