Biography

Afroduck Sounds is all about fitting together the sounds of Hip-Hop and Funk! I've been creating music for over 25 years now and it gives me life. The first album I ever purchased was "Bump City" by Tower Of Power and from there, it was over. I was heavily influenced by artists such as Earth Wind and Fire, The Commodores and James Brown, now leaning more towards the sounds of Bruno Mars (24K Magic), Jacob Banks (The Boy Who Cried Freedom) and Charles Bradley (Changes). Creating music isn't just a hobby for me, it is my passion. Husband and father of 3 by day, songwriter by night. I've had the opportunity of working with some talented artists throughout the years. I'm graciously under the wing of Grammy Nominated Producer ill Factor who has worked with artists such as: Matis Yahu, Justin Timberlake, Skylar Grey, Ginuwine, Kelly Rowland, Kevin Rudolf, Cher, Cody Simpson, Cobra starship, Jared Evan, Jason Durelo, Jessie J, Natasha Bedinfield, Daniel Bedinfield, Groove Armada, Calvin Harris, Roisin Murphy, Howie D(Back Street Boys), Jordan Knight(New Kids On The block), Kate Moss, Songs featured on Pete Tong's & Annie Mac's BBC radio show). He has been a big influence for me and I am very grateful for his help and expertise.
