Thunder X

I grew up in a family where all genre's of music were honored. I start playing the trumpet at 9 yrs old. Earned a scholarship to college but ended up in the county jail instead. Disillusioned and hurt by domestic violence, sexual abuse and racial predjudice I ,in anger, chose to rob a pawn shop to earn money for a band. In the county jail I received Christ as my Savior. Later in the state pen I played in the prison jazz band, start playing the acoustic guitar and singing praise songs. Upon my release I ended up in a aberrant christian sect and after a year got out of the group but lost faith in God and in myself. In a drug addicted rage as I was just about to take another's life (I did not take that life) I had a spiritual awakening that human life was sacred stamped with God's image and that also meant that my life was sacred also (profound feelings of significance). I was sentenced to five years for the attempt to take another's life. Later back in prison, after asking forgiveness and giving my heart back to God, I wrote a rap song about God being my Father-He truly forgave me and adopted me as His son in Christ- which started a deep soul healing, cleansing and spiritual infilling; the genesis of the "Thunder Sound"was born. I sing, rap, play acoustic gitaur and the trumpet; I also write and produce songs I hear by His inspiration. Whether jazz, folk, hip hop,Holy hip hop,rock, contemporary christian or praise and worship I do all in the name of the Lord who has mercy on me. I Thunder His Praise with a sound from the guttermost to the uttermost, check out this annoited fresh sound. A Bay area Pastor called this sound " Fresh Baked Bread".
