I'm a singer/songwriter/recording artist that's been in the music biz one way or another since the late 50's. I've written 100's of songs, and have been lucky enough to have had some recorded by other artists. My last recording venture is a CD called "Bars & Bedrooms" which has done very well for me. 12 different songs in 12 different styles of country music. I'm also a DJ on CKWE 105.9 fm. It's a 3 hour show on Tuesday evenings from 6:00pm to 9:00pm. I call it "Me & My Friends". I only spin artists I know on it. Guests drop in 3 or 4 weeks of the month and we talk about this & that, and spin their CD's. Kind of sweet eh? I'm still writin' & pickin' & grinnin' & preforming at Jamborees, the odd concert, coffee houses and whatever, whenever it interests me. I turn down 90% of the gigs I'm offered, as I figure I've nothing left to prove. But if it's a local fundraiser for a worthwhile cause, I've never been able to say no.

Hi Jerry, Thank you for the friendship ! This is the videoclip of my song released by Universal this week. Would you be so kind and please give your (honoust) opinion on the youtube channel for me ? Would be great !!
I am sooo excited to tell you about my experience on stage at The Empire Theatre lastnight and the night before it was a packed house both evenings and it was sooo much fun, wow! My family said I couldn've done my parts as young cossette and gavroche any better. I am sooo looking forward to going on tour with Phantom of the opera and Les Miserable. Keep your eyes peeled for it to come near you. Come and see it you won..t be dissappointed. This is by far the biggest highlight of my career so far! Luv Kendra-lynn Wilson
