I have no idea...I've been told I have a country sound...I just sing and let the rest take care of itself ROCK ON !!!!!!!!!
Born2rock was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1956 & raised in Baltimore, Maryland... U.S.A. He began playing music at the age of 15. He has played in numerous bands doing cover songs.
He began writing lyrics around the same time as he began playing. He lived with his grandparents from age of 6 and has been married & divorced twice. He has a 28 yr old son. Ralph lives in Buffalo, New York.
On the more personal note he was a baseball and football athlete. He played baseball for the Army team while he was stationed in Germany. He also played Semi Pro Baseball. He was good but says ""not good enough to make it to the top. But that's okay. Things have a reason for the way they happen. I wasn't bitter about it at all. I have worked in homeless shelters helping out the homeless people. "I would make sandwiches for some of them from my home that where out on the streets so they had a meal to eat for that day". He says that he still does make sandwiches at home for the homeless people on the street on occasion If you listen close to my lyrics. you will learn more about me. I write from the experiences I have been through in my life."
Born2rock has had a great love for music for as long as he can remember. He plays piano, guitar & bass. He is self taught on all instruments.He listens to listen to a lot of different genres of music but is very fond of Classic-Rock, especially Southern Rock. You can hear a touch of the Southern Rock style in his voice. He likes to compose write & sing and has done a lot of collaborations with a numerous amount of artists that he has met from other music sites. "This is more or less a hobby for me" he says but does spend an awful lot of time on music. He says that he wouldn't have it any other way.
On listening, his deep & genuine love of music is evident. A modest & humble man, he says "I don't except to sell songs or become a rock star. I do it because I love music. I love to write & sing." He also has a penchant for collaboration and has worked with a lot of musicians. He has written in excess of 70 songs & is the first to admit that he often plays along with them & doesn't remember how certain parts go. This open & dry humorous outlook on life in general reflects subtly in his music which, to my mind, is very much for the serious listener.
Being the open & honest man that he is, Born2rock has requested we give credit to the following artists who he has collaborated with on several tracks:

Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently? Take care and keep in touch. Best, Faber. "Just a guy trying to make the world a better place."
