Im Derek Cate singer/songwriter
my world revolves around my daughter, my best friend and music.

-------------- ------------------------------ -

I love all genres as you can probably tell by now if you are on my page here.
Over the next month or so i will be doing some of these videos again. (older ones)
Like any musician i have grown and i feel i can do better now.

---------------- -----------------------------

Like me im sure you have been seeing a lot of other musicians on here making acoustic cover albums.
I plan on doing the same but i wont be keeping any of the proceeds.
I just dont really care for making money off of other peoples work. So i plan to make all the proceeds generated go strait to a charity of my choice.
So look for these cd's on itunes etc. Soon.

If you have suggestions for a charity be sure to contact me on here.


--------------- ------------------------------

I play by ear for the most part. (i wing it)

----------------- ----------------------------
Best advice i can give to any aspiring guitarists out there is to just keep playing when it gets frustrating and hard just find YOUR way and dont give up it'll come to you. And Remember do whats comfortable to you, Nobody's perfect.

-------------------- -------------------------

Thank you, all of you who has ever said anything positive. You are inspirational.
