Music that Can Change your Mind

John TingerMy first time hearing “Everything is Coincidental” was while I was driving home from work. DJ Mister Man had actually discovered this gem on the web and suggested I take it for the road.

But, it was Monday and I had too much on my mind. It was racing. So, I popped the CD in and instantly my mind quieted down---and so did my screaming child. In a sea of traffic, I began to lighten up and became excited to have found yet another example of this “healing” music that we’ve been looking for...

Purely “guitarlistic” and “finger playing” good, “Everything is Coincidental” by John Tinger was “coincidental”. His particular acoustic style was just what the doctor ordered.

It’s amazing what a little music can do. My experience became easy, relaxing and clarifying.

Oh, and I can’t forget about quiet and simplified. Before you know it, I was able to have new thoughts that were productive and good, even while going 5 mph in the carpool lane. And I must say his useful play of his instrument can definitely mellow you out, and can even get your creative juices flowing again.

You know, so many people get bogged down by the many ups-and-downs of daily life and they choose to deal with it in a way that may or may not cool. But, when you think about it, how many times has a song saved you?

The next time you just can’t seem to get going and could use a jump---listen to Acoustic Fuel. It’s audio that takes you where you want to go.

Positive Affirmation Music - "We Get"

Brazz Tree It's the dif-ference
Between life on the fence

But choose the core in front of your mind
To wash way inherent sins
We get what we think clearly of

I create music that is...
My own music is a hybrid of many styles. I don't set out to throw different influences together, but I have just been combining sounds for so long that it is built into the way I hear now. Most of the time, there is a place in time, or an event, a feeling or a smell that sparks the way a song will sound.

Some of the artists that have influenced me and my music are...
Vicente Amigo, Jeff Beck, Stevie Wonder, Pat Metheny, Weather Report, Peter Gabriel, and John Scofield just to scratch the surface.

My thoughts on the power of music are...
Even though an experience is central only to an artist to begin with, when they write about that experience in music, the feeling can become universal to anyone.
A listener may have no idea what it was that got the music started, but the energy is transferred anyway.

My mission as a musician is...
This is my life and my work. Some people would call it my religion-
My whole lively hood comes from music, so I end up playing, engineering, scoring for film, and recording as a session player.

I meet lots of people, and travel as well. I also enjoy playing for many benefit events and important causes like curing MS and Diabetes.

My "mission" is to affect every possible event I experience in a way that helps, not hurts. I hope things go that way every day.

My thoughts on the power of music are...
If it makes people feel good in a positive way, a healing releasing way, it can lift us up in spirit. I have a quite deep philosophy on music, too deep for this info form.

My mission as a musician is...
Basically,to give people that same peaceful, healing effect I get from the positive music I listen to.
