So, I’m a maltese heavy rock’n roller based in Germany……weird you would think?
Not really, if you knew how much artistic talent originates from that little Mediterranean rock (excuse the pun….). Memories, oh what memories…opening up for the likes of Iron Maiden, playing in festivals with big names like Meatloaf and Marillion on the bill, all the fun, all the partying but a lot of hard work. Life on the road ain’t easy…..
And after all this time, you get to a point where you ask yourself….why am I still doing this? Years ago, I wanted to be a star, a dream shared by a few million other blue-eyed young guys with overblown hormones busting their pants. And after all the parties, the let-downs, the booze and what not, what else is there?? The one thing that really matters: MUSIC! The food of my soul, the air that I breathe, those wonderful moments when you’ve just finished writing/ recording something which people actually like. I sometimes find myself asking: does the world really need my music? Well, the answer is simple: I don’t care, because I need it. Because it makes me happy, because it gives me a sense of freedom, because when all the blue-eyed dreams of stardom have faded, it’s like chains have been cut and you start making real music. Do I care whether a 1000 people listen to my songs or just 10? No, I don’t, because for me, it goes way beyond fame and fortune.

Hey Joe, Really enjoy your music & look forward to hearing more. I wish I could get close to your quality of production! I really like your song 'Other Side of the Medal' If you'd care to go to post it on Soundclick I'd like to add it to Auspicious Radio. Also thought your Zep cover was amazing ... best, Michael
