African American, Artist, Kerream Jones, kerreamjones.com

ALTHOUGH THE TERM “STARVING ARTIST” DOES NOT APPLY TO THE PAINTER KERREAM JONES, the hunger of the self-described visual griot is evident in the sensual depths of his paintings, the relentless drive of his business ventures, and in his appreciation for all things creative, expressive, and true. -[Excerpt | Biography]-

Cameron Ross, NEW PERSPECTIVE

Cameron Ross -][- NEW PERSPECTIVE –Mp3– [Cameron Ross Music, 2012] –

Cameron, a native of Osceola, AR, comes from a heritage deeply rooted in God and music. As a child, he always knew that he had a place in music, but didn’t know exactly where. That all changed when he entered the 6th grade. Determined to play the drums, he signed up for middle school band. However, his parents told him that he had to play saxophone.

“I didn’t want to play it because it had too many buttons.” After being tired of always getting last chair in band class, he decided to take his sax home and actually practice it. This resulted in him getting first chair and he has been soaring since. -[Excerpt | Biography]-

“Some of the earliest memories that I can remember are the ones that involve music.” —Cameron Ross
