I make music, not money

My name is Colt Kruse. I was born in 1982 and grew up with my sister Kristina, mother Cheryl, father Ron, and my Grandma Clara living across town. I mostly like to keep a life of mystery, but every now and then, I open up. I have three best friends that help me more than they probably think they do. Desiree Parks, Kevin Donaldson, and Edward.

This is my attempt to touch someone more than I could ever here in Ormond, Florida. For as long as I can ever remember, music has always been the one thing that saved me from myself. I started writing actual structured songs at the age of 16. Being my earliest recordings, they're horrible. I probably sing off key most of the time and play a sloppy guitar. Fast forward to about 20 or so, I was introduced to writing music on the computer through MIDI and other resources. I really took to this medium and have since written 50+ songs. Mostly instrumental, but with a traditional song arrangement.

I then went through a major change in my life. I had two marital affairs. Both took me far away from any close friends at the time and mostly from my family. The latter of the two marital affairs began and ended with a life changing event for me and I have since cleaned up my life, gotten rooted into faith and the spirit of God, and doing better than I was. I have my friends back, my family and I are closer than ever, and have been meeting amazing musicians/songwriter as of late. Earlier this year, I decided to go back to how I started writing music, just me, my acoustic guitar, and a notebook. Over the past y ear, I have written around 15 or so songs. Some finished, some waiting to be finished.

Yes, I have my big dreams to do nothing with my life than write music, record, and tour all around the world. What songwriter doesn't? I could die tomorrow and die happy knowing I did the best I could with what God gave me to do it with. All I really want to do is make someone feel better with music. Touch a heart or two. I'm all about the people. They mean the most to me. Everyone has a story or two to tell. I'm just simply singing mine.

So I hope these songs of mine touch at least one person. Because it's all I really have to give... words, music, and my heart.
