This is about friends and partners

Even though I really like doing every aspect of my music career myself, there are times I need some help and inspiration too, just like every other human being. It's either about doubts coming up from time to time or just the need of a helping hand. Everything's easier with a supportive community around. It's always better to surround yourself with supportive people who can help you reaching the next step instead of fighting in a competitive environment.

In this blog post I’d like to introduce especially two people who helped me on my journey so far. Either just through some kind and motivational words or due active involvement.

Rob George

The first person that I want to introduce is Rob George who is an independent country artist from Germany just like me, but he is a few steps further in his career. As I started doing my first attempts on my musical journey, just in the phase where I was figuring out how this whole music business works, he was always there like kind of a mentor helping me out with good advice and feedback on my music. Every time I had a specific question he was there finding the right answer to help me one step further at a time. He helped me improve my music but also had good advice about everything related to release strategies and music marketing.

I don’t know if I had even started this journey without his motivational words. I'm very thankful that our paths have crossed and I'm hopefully looking forward our paths keep crossing every now and then.

I’d highly recommend to check out his page to learn more about Rob and his music as well as himself as human being.

Jeff Canada

I really love black felt hats and one day an american hat manufacturer called ‘American Hat Makers’ hit me up because they wanted to collaborate with me as a one of their brand ambassadors. So we set it all up and right before we officially started this partnership we came across a huge problem: they thought I'd be located in the USA and wanted to send me a brand new black cattleman felt hat but I wasn't located in the USA even though I'd like to be. I'm still in Germany waiting for my diversity visa application to be continued. The problem: they usually don't ship overseas. 

This is where my friend Jeff Canada, an independent country artists from Texas, came into play. He received the delivery from ‘American Hat Makers’ for me and forwarded it over to my place and while he had the package, he filled the empty spaces with some of his own merchandise. As I asked him what I'd owe him to ship the hat to Germany and filling the empty space with some of his merch, he just replied 'You don't owe me anything. Glad I could help'!

This story lets you know what kind of a guy Jeff is. Therefore I’d highly recommend to check out his page too.

Black Felt Hats

By the way, talking about black felt hats and ‘American Hat Makers’, this is a great spot to introduce their stuff as well. They make really affordable and good quality hats and they have a huge selection of different hat styles.
