Who or what is your musical inspiration?
The Retro bands of the 60s and 70s are my inspiration in my music writing and performing live. Band's like Led Zeppelin , Jimi Hendrix , Jeff Beck , Grand Funk , Yes , Rush , Bad Company and others help form my Rock edge style. I also got into Pop music groups and singers of the 60s and 70s with The CARPENTERS , ABBA , STEELY DAN , MICHAEL JACKSON , DAVID BOWIE , TINA TURNER , and QUEEN along with others that gave me a understanding of Pop oriented style creation with my song writing abilities..
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
It would be great especially after making my first independent movie - ROCKING IN PARADISE - filmed in Hawaii. I'm also starting to film the sequel movie - RETURN TO PARADISE - this summer 🌞 and into the fall till 2026. So this festival would promote my musical drama movie's filmed entirely in Hawaii.
What would you do with $50,000?
I would put some of the money down on a home for my family in Hawaii and the remaining amount would be put into my music 🎵🎶 and movie productions. Aloha from Hawaii.. Taja Tajaworld com
