Biography

Born2rock was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1956 & raised
in Baltimore, Maryland... U.S.A. He began playing music at
the age of 15. He has played in numerous bands doing cover
songs.

He began writing lyrics around the same time as he began
playing. He lived with his grandparent from age of 6 and has
been married & divorced twice. He has a 29 yr old son.
Ralph lives in Buffalo, New York.

On the more personal note he was a baseball and
football athlete. He played baseball for the Army team while
he was stationed in Germany. He also played Semi Pro
Baseball. He was good but says ""not good enough to make
it to the top. But that's okay. Things have a reason for the
way they happen. I wasn't bitter about it at all. I have
worked in homeless shelters helping out the homeless people.
"I would make sandwiches for some of them from my home
that where out on the streets so they had a meal to eat for
that day". He says that he still does make sandwiches at home
for the homeless people on the street on occasion. If you
listen close to my lyrics you will learn more about me. I
write from the experiences I have been through in my life."

Born2rock has had a great love for music for as long as
he can remember. He plays piano, guitar & bass. He is self
taught on all instruments. He listens to listen to a lot of
different genres of music but is very fond of Classic-Rock,
especially Southern Rock. You can hear a touch of the
Southern Rock style in his voice. He likes to compose write &
sing and has done a lot of collaborations with a numerous
amount of artists that he has met from other music sites. "This
is more or less a hobby for me" he says but does spend an
awful lot of time on music. He says that he wouldn't have it
any other way.

On listening, his deep & genuine love of music is
evident. A modest & humble man, he says "I don't except to
sell songs or become a rock star. I do it because I love music.
I love to write & sing." He also has a penchant for
collaboration and has worked with a lot of musicians. He has
written in excess of 70 songs & is the first to admit that he
often plays along with them & doesn't remember how
certain parts go. This open & dry humorous outlook on life
in general reflects subtly in his music which, to my mind, is
very much for the serious listener.
