I started playing music at church at 3yrs old. Drums are my first instrument. My dad plays organ and piano and my mom sings. My late grandmother, Clementine Jones played organ and piano as well. She was into jazz and blues heavily. My late grandfather Pastor Leon Lawrence played piano and sang as well. I started playing organ at 8yrs old. My dad and grandmother were my first teachers. At age 9, I was trying to play for my dad's church, Universal Liberty in Christ Temple. I did not play well enough. But he kept me practicing. I also went to school to read music at age 12, I played organ for my late grandfather's church,Greater Faith Baptist Church of Cleveland Ohio. On Sunday nights I played for The Pentecostal Temple Church Of God In Christ. I was saved on Wednesday May 3,1995 at Greater Faith Baptist Church.
