Album Notes

George Hunter born september 21st 1953 started singing in the church choir in the San Francisco bay area at age 10.After highschool while attending San Francisco State University and attending there great music program, playing various percussion instruments, and singing in numerous stage dramas, that was when the vocal bug set in. Growing up in the bay area and playing in several local bands started this voyage that has now taken him to the heights of completing his self entitled cd GEOrge.

I've always loved performing and touring, and doing studio work, but what has given me joy for the last 21 years has been the joy of raising my family of five sons. Now that they are raised, I’m ready to give the world some music that will be enjoyed! 2007 look out!

While touring in Canada, Seattle, and the Spokane Washington area
there were a lot of lessons to be learned for a young afro-american trying to find out if this was the right path.
Well, years later all I can say is that I've had a lot of fun and I've learned a lot. Being in the venues of Smokey,Commodores,Blue Magic,Stylistic,Spinners,Pointer Sisters. It was definately encouraging to deal with the old school flavor and the new scool technology. Back in the day going into the studio meant spending hours on hours of time. now with the technology that has been given us; look out.
