Mike Jones (MJ♪♫)
I am a 39-year-old husband and father of 6 living in Florida. I suffered permanent vocal cord injuries in 2000 and was told by doctors I would never sing again. And for a long time I didn’t, I turned my back on my music for almost six years. Then my life long friend Richard M. Thomas (Also on Ourstage) led me back to music. He helped me understand even though I can’t sing as well as I used to, I can still write and create music. It’s been a difficult process but it feels great to be writing, playing, and SINGING again.
I currently perform and record all music myself at home on my home computer. I do have some older songs posted I recorded with studio musicians in the early 90’s. All of the songs posted here are originals written by myself or co-written with my life long friend Richard M. Thomas (Also on Ourstage). Hope you find something you dig!
Because of my injuries I am no longer focused on performing but now focusing on my songwriting. I am seeking a publishing deal and new artist/bands to write for, if your interested in performing one or more songs send me a private message.
I owe everything to my wife Brandy and my children for loving and putting up with me, my mom for teaching me my first three cords, my dad for my musical abilities, my grandmother (rest her soul) for always telling me how great I was even when I wasn’t, my best friend and co-writer Richard M. Thomas who keeps me keepin’ on, and God, who has blessed me way beyond what I deserve!
If there is a song you would like to have a copy of send me a private message and I will e-mail you an MP3. No charge, songs aren’t any good if no one listens to them.
Thanks for stopping by and God bless,
Mike Jones MJ♪♫
