Allen Americans Hockey, Texas Revolution Football, Texas Brahmas Hockey, and Devils Bowl Speedway. Perry Senior Living Advisers, LLC:
I have been singing in Senior Communities for almost 12 years. I work with Executive Directors and Activity Directors to provide
entertainment to my seniors. I am very familiar with all of the Independent, Assisted, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing communities. These relationships led me to start Perry Senior Living Advisers, LLC. I use this knowledge and my love and concern for my seniors to personally provide guidance and information to help them find their ‘next’ new home. Highlights:
Performed the National Anthem and "God Bless America" during the last 13 Texas Rangers Baseball seasons. I also sang at Game 1 of the 2011 ALCS Playoff game and Game 4 of the 2015 ALDS Playoff game. Sang for the 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 Mrs. Texas Pageants. I've performed in numerous Theater productions. I play a 6- and 12-string guitar, but primarily, perform with the aid of recorded backup music (tracks), which allows me to sing a wider variety of songs. I am comfortable performing for as little as 20 people and for as many as 50,000+. With a music repertoire of 500 songs, I sing Country, Classic Hits, Standards, Big Band, Swing, Rock & Roll, Classic Rock, R&B, and Disco. Some of the artist’s music that I sing includes Alabama, Alan Jackson, Barry Manilow, Brooks & Dunn, Clint Black, Dwight Yocum, Elvis Presley, Englebert Humperdink, Garth Brooks, George Strait, Hank Williams, Lynard Skynard, Merle Haggard, Neil Diamond, Randy Travis, Robert Palmer, Frank Sinatra, Toby Keith, Willie Nelson, Barry White and many more. I have all of the equipment for your Karaoke party and over 15,000 songs. Background:
I grew up in Denton, Texas and began singing for people when I was 6 years old. In fact, while attending North Texas Lab School on the NTSU (now UNT) campus, I stood up on the school bus during a first grade field trip and sang "When You're Smilin'” for the class. They all clapped for me. When my mother picked me up after school that day, I was so excited and told her I sang for the class. That’s when she gave me the best advice ever, “Never stop singing” … and I never have. The next year Miss Hodges, our Music teacher, asked me to sing "O Holy Night" for the Christmas play. Three years later, in 5th Grade, she picked me to sing a solo, while performing a child's part, in the NTSU Italian Opera "La Boheme". After that night I knew I wanted to sing for the rest of my life! When I was 13, I taught myself how to play guitar and sing folk music. When I was 18 and a senior at Denton High School, I sang my first gig at "The Mug and Pitcher" on the NTSU campus. Even though I loved music and was building quite a list of restaurants and clubs around the DFW area, my father gave me the advice to do the sensible thing and major in business and keep music as a hobby. I graduated from NTSU with a B.B.A. degree in Business/Marketing and went to work in the Grocery/Health & Beauty Care industry working for several manufacturers managing food brokers and calling on most of the Grocery/Convenience Store headquarters around the country. I had a great career for over 30 years. In 2008, the economy crashed, and my industry changed. There were very few Regional Manager jobs left in my industry, and I found myself at a crossroads. While beginning my own brokerage company, I also went back to performing in nightclubs and restaurants. In 2009, it was suggested that I should start singing in Senior Communities where I recently passed 8700 shows in 430 senior communities/facilities. I also started a full-time music business as a DJ, Karaoke host, and singing the National Anthem and “God Bless America” for the Texas Rangers, Dallas Mavericks, Lone Star Park, and others. My proudest moment was getting invited by the Texas Rangers to sing “God Bless America” for the first game of the ALCS Championship game in October of 2011. That night I sang for over 52,000 in the stadium and over 6 million on National TV. I was also invited back to sing at the 4th game of the 2015 ALDS Series. I continue to sing for them today. I thank God every day that He allows me to wake up healthy and go out and sing for Seniors and do what I love so much. Because after 40 years of singing part-time … I’m finally doing it … MY WAY! "Singers and Musicians are some of the most driven, courageous people on the face of the earth. They deal with more day-to-day rejection in one year than most people do in a lifetime. Every day, they face the financial challenge of living a freelance lifestyle, the disrespect of people who think they should get real jobs, and their own fear that they'll never work again. Every day, they have to ignore the possibility that the vision they have dedicated their lives to is a pipe dream. With every note, they stretch themselves, emotionally and physically, risking criticism and judgment. With every passing year, many of them watch as the other people their age achieve the predictable milestones of normal life - the car, the family, the house, the nest egg. Why? Because musicians and singers are willing to give their entire lives a moment - to that melody, that lyric, that chord, or that interpretation that will stir the audience's soul. Singers and Musicians are beings who have tasted life's nectar in that crystal moment when they poured out their creative spirit and touched another's heart. In that instant, they were as close to magic, God, and perfection as anyone could ever be. And in their own hearts, they know that to dedicate oneself to that moment is worth a thousand lifetimes.”
