Finding Old Messages, Remembering What Could Have Been
Welcome to this Hunter Storm music flashback! While cleaning up my messages, I stumbled upon a note I sent back in December 2014 — just before a major digital disruption stalled my momentum, possibly due to fallout from my day job career. At the time, my ReverbNation and Facebook pages were going viral:
- ReverbNation: #16 Worldwide in Metal, 21,760 plays just 15 days after creating my account
- Facebook post: 2.7 million hits in just 15 days

Within about a month, my chart numbers in Metal had jumped to:
- Worldwide #9
- National (United States) #6
- Local (Arizona) #1
These numbers reflect the work, creativity, and dedication I poured into my music, from vocals to harmonies to full arrangement.
Even though unforeseen obstacles slowed things down, the experience reinforced something crucial: resilience and persistence matter more than momentary setbacks. I hope that’s the encouragement you take from my situation.
For anyone looking for a versatile, committed artist with both creative vision and professional discipline, I’d love to connect.
Let’s collaborate, create, and keep building — no matter the obstacles.
