Interview with Circle of One

Music is at its best when it's born out of passion, meaning, and purpose. Unfortunately, for today's listeners, many artists simply fall back on exhausted formulas, as they quickly sacrifice passion for sales. However, rather than falling back with its peers, Circle of One aims to step up. "Too many musicians are just making noise. Nobody's saying anything of value," says frontman Mark Cunzolo. "You're attracted to someone. Great. You like to party. Great. But what's the point in telling people about that? Let's use music to unpack some deeper issues." Circle of One tackles this challenge by lacing its hard-rock, metal, hip-hop, and electronically infused music with tales of internal fear, substance abuse struggles, self-control issues, and more. Most importantly, Circle of One passionately displays the power and the hope needed to find freedom from these issues. Their music has a message. Their music has a purpose. It's time to spread it like wildfire.

Interview with Mary Jennings

 It takes a lot of life experience to craft engaging, universal song lyrics and singer, songwriter and musician Mary Jennings has had more than a lion share. Hows this for a start: career stops as a teacher, aerobics instructor, clothing retailer, bartender, luggage saleswoman and paranormal researcher. Add to that the early loss of her mom , and there are plenty stories to share. Jennings states that music has kept her sane. Not surprisingly, her songs often possess a modicum of sadness and darkness, about which she says, I share these emotions with others because I know so many have felt the same things. If I can create melodies and deliver words that express their feelings, Ive done my job

Interview with Bonita Adele

I am a musical artist. I write, sing, play piano, have started to learn to play the flute and I dance. The bulk of this Website is dedicated to my Christian/Inspirational works but there are also links to my secular works as well. I am an enigma as I cannot really classify myself in any one genre of music. I have performed jazz, R and B, pop, light rock, blues and a bit of country. I have even done theater and show tune work. I have performed with a variety of talented musicians in duos, trios, rock bands, jazz bands and even swing orchestra. I think my favorite thing, though, is getting to perform things I write. They all come from the heart and they help to paint a picture of my life. They reflect my hopes, thoughts and belief system. And they are all inspired by God. I hope you will enjoy the music, videos, photos and my blog that will be updated regularly to let everyone know what's happening. Please feel free to drop me a note, leave a comment or just say hi. I dedicate this site and my music to my Mom and Dad who I miss everyday. Yet, I know they are sitting next to our Lord and watching over me, smiling down at their very headstrong but tenacious daughter !! I love you both. Many blessings. Bonnie .
