   About Oliver Thiessen
I am a soul - searcher. I am a simple human being trying to figure things out through words and music. Life is a mystery to me. This huge adventure, it's calling out to all of us. I want to use my music on this adventure. I want it to be my ship, my vehicle of choice. I long for it to take me to places that have never been tamed or touched, places where the world is upside down and right side wrong, where truth is the mirror, and sunsets and sunrises are never scarce. My passion is to seek truth, to be an honest pioneer of my music. To somehow ask the questions, that eventually provoke the answers. I don't have it all figured out, that is why I'm making music, I'm asking, searching, probing, living, loving and learning. I want to always be learning. I want to be a sponge, soaking up the world around me, I want to be connected and wired. I want to help people, give people hope, be their friend through the things I sing about and make music about. We are all connected in this yarn ball of a world, and the only way we are ever go to survive...no beyond that, if we ever are going to truly live we have to do it together, figure out this mess together. God made islands for a reason, so that we could build bridges. I want to be a bridge in this life, staying connected to the world around me, the people around me, and the universe above, the truth above.   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)!!!

I was Googling Charlie Peacock, found his site, and was trying to find which album of his had this fantastic tune on it, called Barcelona. More Googling, and I found out it's by another Calgary artist!
It's such an incredible piece of music. Love it!
When are you performing next?
Well, I'd love to know more about how you make music - you seem to be another soul sick of CCM and the mainstream.

I can always do with some constructive criticism/critique - check out my page!
Cheers!
