Keep the music/message pure. Be my "label" and help fund my first record, "All-American Boy" - The Album.
It’s been an amazing journey since I released “All-American Boy” on YouTube
last July. I made the video using my own money (and maxing out my
credit card)—independently and without a label or management. Without
any money left to do promotion of any kind, I uploaded the video to YouTube and clicked "Share" on Facebook.
Thanks to all of YOU who shared the videos with your friends and on
social media, the video went viral almost overnight, landing me spots on
major news outlets like “Good Morning America,” CNN and major print
publications. We now have over 2.75 million views!
With your help, we released a second video, “STAY.” I got to meet
amazing people like Elton John, Mariah Carey, and Edie Windsor. And best
of all, I got to meet so many of YOU, my beloved GrandFam, as I toured
around the country. I got to hear your amazing stories. Your hopes and
fears. Your triumphs and heartaches. And how in some small way, my music
made you feel a little less lonely in the world.
Connecting with
those of you who have reached out to me through social media and those
of you I've been fortunate enough to meet in person (and hug) has been
the most amazing part of all of this! It is those of you who have
inspired me to keep going: to continue to express my experiences,
reflections, and feelings through music and videos and art.
