Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, he's a Juno Award nominee who has a lifelong calling as a pianist/composer and songwriter coupled with a career as an entrepreneur and educator. “Just do it” was his philosophy long before Nike adopted it as their mantra. As a “keynote artist”, he underscores the emotional aspects his keynote addresses with original songs performed at the piano. One of his achievements is his book, Quiet Determination, Unlocking the Gates to Unlimited Success. In his book he relates the tendency most people have to overthink "how we're going to do it" to the point of forgetting the original vision and giving up on it before it has a chance for fruition. "I'm not a millionaire, nor am I losing any sleep over how to become one. I'm not famous, nor am I dying become an celebrity. Success means different thing to different people. We've been brainwashed by the media to think that success is defined as how much money we have, how many things we possess. You only have to look at the number rich and famous people who are generally depressed, dissatisfied and unhappy with their miserable, wretched lives to see what I mean." "Quiet Determination" by Kory Livingstone. Kory has released six albums on his own independent record label, Crestant Records. His CD entitled You Were In My Eyes, a collection of eight original songs that tell stories about our everyday life experiences, the many faces of love, inspirational themes and the power of words.

It has a wide variety of instrumental tunes that Kory composed for solo piano up to full symphonic orchestra, from gospel to jazz and reggae.

It was the first school of it’s kind in Canada, pairing the study of the performing arts with academics. The world could use more Kory's. Kory's Website The Book! Quiet Determination

At only twenty-one years old, Sam Mooney has already become a #1-selling iTunes Singer/Songwriter, performed from Los Angeles to Boston, and won the nation’s largest amateur youth talent competition.

Born and raised as one of seven children in Brookhaven, Mississippi, Mooney was greatly influenced by the music of his home region. His CD collection as a child consisted primarily of early R&B pioneers such as Ray Charles, Dr. John, B.B. King and more. The influence of these artists can still be heard in Mooney’s distinctively soulful vocals and piano playing. Mooney started playing the piano at eight years old and began writing songs as a teen.

(a mouth organ from NE thailand made out of bamboo pipes) Hal has a unique talent for taking an instrument associated with a particular culture, such as the khaen or the African banakulas, and, after experiencing how they are traditionally used, he then makes the instrument his own by playing them in a uniquely “Hal Walker” way. Walker is also an historian with a degree from Northwestern University. Although he has spent his entire post-college career as a musician, much of his music draws from his understanding of time and place. His CD, “Home in Ohio,” is a celebration of community, local history and life in Ohio.
