ABOUT

Life now has led me back to 1st Institute FWC w/Pastor Clark serving as music director. A meeting of Calvin Edwards in August 2014 landed me the organist spot with his jazz trio, along the study of the gr8 Jimmy Smith for accompanying knowledge. Then, meeting his brother Jett in December 2014 afforded me the opportunity to play organ with his "Japan Mass Choir" & the 2015 "Powerful" release that debuted @#7 on the Billboard Charts. Showcasing w/Calvin is so cool, as our concerts r Jazz history lessons. Scheduled Friday nights finds me hanging out w/Eric & Dena Brice's "Experience" playing my Hammond Sk1 organ @2XSalt Ministries. Inspiration is speaking, creative winds are blowing. I'm in a breeze. Memoirs "Gifted" & "Horizons" CD r 2017 releases.

Soon, my very own "Samuel OBie Trio" will showcase the new "smooth jazz".

"GOSPEL ON THE EAST LAWN" w/President Jimmy & Emily Carter in June of '79. He wrote "best wishes to Samuel OBie". I'll never forget that day.
