General
Music, art, fine foods, and good beer. How to be a forgiving spiritual Christian in a unforgiving material world.Music
Too many influences to name. I like all styles and have written and performed styles ranging from classical to punk, bluegrass to salsa-merengue, jazz to coverbandpop. I have been in the music business since 1972 and it has been my primary source of income since 1975.Movies
I am all over the place here as well. I prefer well written and acted thought provoking socially relevant drama, but I still laugh like an idiot at the Three Stooges and enjoy musicals like Chicago and Moulin Rouge (tremendous arranging).Television
Books
The Pig That Wanted to Be Eaten, A Confederacy of Dunces, The Loved One, The Bible, and anything (and everything) ever written by John Irving, Steinbeck, Hemingway, Joseph Conrad, Kurt Vonnegut and Herman Hesse.Heroes
Beethoven, Igor Stravinsky, Bird, Jesus Christ, Dietrich Bonheoffer, Charles Ives, Clarence Darrow, Martin Luther, Martin Luther King, Socrates, Jon Huss, etc.

About me:
I am Marty, 52 year old, grey haired (what’s, left of it) keyboardist/vocalist for the Christ Central Church (www.christcentralchurch.com) Band otherwise known as C3B, the Fabulous Kays (www.kaysband.com) a corporate/wedding band of note, as well as a new project Musaic, an eclectic funky jazz/R&B act. I live in Charlotte, NC where my family has long time roots going back to the 1600s (I have seen the original land grant papers). I grew up in the military, a Navy Officers brat so I did not live here as a child. My formal education is not in music, but in chemistry (BS from UNCC), nonetheless I make a comfortable living playing music. I have studied music independently and from several different teachers through the years and am an active composer of gospel, pop, jazz, R&B, and classical pieces which I will make available as I complete this site. I will be coming back to this later to add links and stuff.Who I'd like to meet:
Other musicians and artists seeking to create while still making a living in their chosen discipline. Armchair philosophers, math/science and computer geeks are also welcome. Beer aficionados and movie critics are cool as long as they are not bombastic snobs. No soapbox orators or conspiracy theorists please.Details
