katzinjamma

About:  

katzinjamma is a practicing follower of our lord and savior Jesus Christ and husband FIRST, as well as a content creator, singer/songwriter, musician, music producer, published poet, a former financial advisor, artist, signTist (sign maker) and full blooded AmeriCan. 

Nicknamed by his grandmother, has been involved with music professionally since he was 9 years old starting with violin, then guitar, but would focus more on vocals. He sang for the church choir leading him to be chosen four years straight for the SEABBS all district and then chosen one year for the NYSSMA Annual New York State show through the public school system. 

Life forced him to drop out of his musical endeavors through his high school years to get a degree in advertising, to then pick up the guitar again for the first time at the age of 18. He tried to put a band together that following year only to find an oversaturated market of guitarists and turned to the bass guitar, where he was famously known in the Queens / NYC / try state music scene with his self titled live band, katzinjamma. 

The katzinjamma live band (CLICK: “the kj band” at top of page) put him on the map as one of the movers and shakers of the tri state area, leading him to terrestrial radio airplay at WSOU 89.5 FM pirate radio. When the live band disbanded, while starting his Signtist career with Vic Kessler Signs, katzinjamma started a new project that eventually was titled “ONE” where he rubbed elbows with Ted Nugent, Tommy Shaw, Vernon Reid and Living Color, Cheap Trick, Santana to name a few. Out of frustration of not solidifying a singer frontman and constant band member changes, he stepped away from Music and decided to learn more about the world and became a stock broker with Stratton Oakmont. He got his sales training there and became an instructor for business creation  to work for bigger establishments like Dreyfus Mutual Funds and the infamous E*Trade. (So for 14 years he was also a Licensed Series 7, 63 and 65 Financial Advisor. BUT, while at Stratton Oakmont teaching the cold calling method meetings everyday, YES the wolf of wall street firm.. ask Jordan, Koch, Miller, Berenger, Shamah, Gelfand that I was there right at the time Belford was being pushed out just as that movie was ending ..)…. 

katzinjamma's need to get out there got so strong that he answered a Music Exchange add which led to him to a start up project called Claude's Front Pocket (CLICK: “claude's front pocket” at top of page) as the bass player and co/writer, where for the second time, got him heard on terrestrial radio station regular play on WRCN 103.9 FM. The band was approached by PUSH Records of Hall and Oats but the band disbanded before anything could be sealed on a contract that was offered ... yeah you know things happen the guitarist moved, the singers usage of substances … Push Records lost interest in that, etc ... 

SO... 

after the passing of his grandmother, whom had knicknamed him katzinjamma.. and yes that's how she spelled it, he went into writing mode again and started recording a new solo project he called sunraysdown .... and finished a full album but never released it. But, Before grandma passed away he played her the song “breakfree” and she couldn't believe he did all the parts. She was so impressed, he knew he was on to something.  That was a big thing to know before she passed so with a heavy heart  he poured his heart out to finish the album before moving out of New York for good. 

He left NYC in April 2006 for a clean slate to Charlotte North Carolina becoming a Published Writer, Winning critical acclaim 
for his poems "Nothing Done Right" and then "Wishing" in the "Collected Whispers" collection, which was put into song. 

On January 20th 2010 he releases his first musical solo project effort SUNRAYDOWN “breakfree” a full album release with some guitar help of ron labriola in New York (CLICK: “sunraysdown” at top of page) and recorded an ep called “still” as a singer songwriter musician, holding the #1 spot for 465 days straight, on the Reverbnation Charlotte Music charts, leading him to the second music contact offer of 6 offers total, including independents, a few of the big names with the latest offer from Tate Music Group.. the number one music publishing company at the time in June of 2015 since Claude's Front Pocket. 

On January 29th 2014 the official katzinjamma solo album debut "resoNation" was released, (CLICK: “resoNation” at top of page) reaching NUMBER ONE on the Reverbnation charlotte music charts 21 TIMES since its debut and still on the top of the charts ever since and number one as recent as Early May of 2026.  (ANDIKEEPTHISSTATUPDATED) 

But, on July 15th 2015, after being nominated, he wins the best alternative rock category for The Akademia Awards with his song "Listen for the silence".  

His music has been heard ONTHERADIO in over 75 countries and 40 states online and terrestrial stations and well over 3.1 million listeners since the debut solo release.  He also was chosen as one of the top ten for the Stoney Awards in 2015 alongside Chris Cornell's Higher Ground and Marilyn Manson's The Pale Emperor. That led him to a Radio Show slot on Rockmetaltalk.com for a few years before he took a break for a while.

Deciding to stay as an independent artist for the time being, rejecting the record contract offers, he released a single in late summer of 2022 called “within” when he officially became saved in 2018 and gave himself to JESUS. Its about happiness and that JESUS will get you there. (CLICK: “within” at top of page).  He also released a video of the song written and performed by him called “The Calling Dove” about when JESUS spoke to him when he was 3 years old, after his brother was killed. He thought it was his brothers spirit who said, as clear as day “i'm ok .. i'm in no pain … i'm watching over you” but he knows now that it was the lord. He owes EVERYTHING to his lord and savior all his talents, all the success and his childhood sweetheart who became his wife in 2023.

It may be a little while for any new releases, with his busy plate, but he is currently working on new material for a full album of inspiration, dedicated to JESUS CHRIST. The first song for the new release is going well, the guitar work is written, the lyrics are almost completed, the drum tracks are in the final stages for recording. He is just enjoying life in the sign business as a signTist,  spending time with his wife, reuniting with lost family members and of coarse his dogs. He also has done two church sermon's if you care to check out here on the site.
