For those of you that have been here before, you will notice that some performers will be missing. We will no longer carry people that have not done their part. It is difficult for us to understand why some people will take advantage of others but we realize that is life. We do not charge our clients to put their pictures and other information on here, but we do expect a little respect. Therefore, from this day forward only those that deserve to be recognized will be. I'm not mad, but quite upset. My wife and I work hard to get people recognized and we do deserve a little bit more consideration for what we have done.
Thank You
Michael James Caron
President-M&S Public Relations
Music Talent Promoter for Emerald Records.

SHIRLEY RUTH CARON

shirleycaron.jpg

5fpzy0.gif

We both lived in Taunton at that time and shared thoughts with one another as my marriage was similar to hers. In 1987 I moved to Indianapolis and on December 22, 1988 Shirley moved here to be with me. December 22, 1988 is the last time that I have had a drink. When I discovered how beautiful her poetry was I convinced her to submit them. She has won many awards over the years for her poetry although never in the form of money.

shirleycaronsproducer.jpg.jpg

Cliff Ayres, (Shirley's Producer) has helped her out along the way as well as myself. As Shirley began to gain recognition, people wanted to promote her. Without going into details the promoter that she did have make big promises for payment up front that never came. The promoter and her husband split up and the promoter burned her husband's utility trailer containing a lot of artists master CD's including two of Shirley's. At that point I took over as Shirley's manager, we put together some Showcases of Talent and the following year brought ten artists to the E.I.A. Cliff was impressed. So much so that when I had some clients ready to record in a Major Studio he brought them to the Gene Breeden Studio in Nashville where a session costs $5,000.00 and they were allowed to record for $200.00 We have brought him top notch entertainment including Robbins & Wheeler who won the event and a $5,000.00 Recording Contract.

Shirley is shown here with her Shirley Caron's Bound for Glory Band in Nashville.  The band no longer exists, however if you would like to help her, she can regroup.

Early in 2003, Shirley decided that she was not going to write poetry anymore, because no one seemed to notice her talents. I reminded her that she had told me on several occasions that GOD knew when the time was right to make things happen. Three weeks later she received a Nomination form in the mail from Th Entertainer Indi-Association informing her that she was being Nominated for Silver Writer/Artist of 2003. She called the number on the form and

spoke with Mister Cliff Ayres, the man who sang the original version of "My Blue Heaven." He informed her that one of his clients brought a poem to him and asked if she could make a song out of it. Cliff told her that she could not do anything with it without the authors permission. The song entitled "A Touch of Beauty" has since been taken over by Mister Ayres himself who sings a wonderful rendition of the song. It was included on an Emerald Records compilation album of twenty-one other songs and was distributed to over 50,000 people World Wide in the Fall of 2009. The song received a lot of recognition and will be released sometime in 2010 as a single. Congratulations Shirley.

M&S Public Relations received the EIA GOLDEN Promoters & Artists 0f 2009 Award at the recent Entertainer Indi-Association's 40th installment of the EIA Awards Show in Nashville, Tennessee taped on the 26th and 27th of June, 2009. Shirley Ruth Caron, Vice President of M&S Public Relations was also informed that her original song "A Touch of Beauty" will be on a compilation of twenty one other songs by various artists and distributed to over 50,000 outlets World Wide. Congratulations Shirley Ruth.

shirleycaronwhenshewas38yearsold.jpg.jpg

From 2003 Shirley has been Nominated for writer/artist, songwriter, vocalist and this past April she appeared with her newly formed band "Shirley Caron's Bound For Glory Band." Although they did a Fantastic job and Shirley did a superb job at "Tennessee Waltz" the band has since broken up. Shirley sings Patsy Cline, Connie Francis, Brenda Lee, and several Gospel, however most of the band members want to sing Bluegrass Only. Dave Mansfield (The Drummer) is still on standby. Shirley is looking for new members including a keyboard player.

img0097.jpg.w300h225.jpg

This is Shirley with her band singing "Tennessee Waltz" at the E.I.A. Awards show in Nashville two years ago. Since than the band members went their separate ways. This has been awhile now, and Shirley's health is not as good as it once was. If there is a keyboard player in the Greenwood, Indiana area that would like to work with her on a few numbers, that would be all that she would need. Shirley is 61, and cannot stand for any length of time, so the person would have to be patient. She would prefer a female but a male will do as well. We do not have practice space, so that would have to be considered as well. She has come a long way, and I would hate to see her have to give up her dreams now, after all that she has accomplished. Our phone number is at the bottom of the page.
Thank you.

Cliff Ayres has met and befriended some wonderful people over the years. He is shown here with a young Florence Henderson. Over the past fifty years, Cliff has maintained a clean, honest approach to the entertainment business and has refused to represent anyone that did not. That has gotten him some resentment from those that feel that it is alright to produce hate music because it makes money. We support Cliff's ideals and hope you will also.

Introducing Rick Hager

rickhager2.jpg

Rick was born January 11, 1960, in Cleveland, Ohio. He grew up in the Cleveland area where he first started his music career in Country music. Rick now resides in the small southern Town of Cambridge, Ohio. As a musician, Rick is a singer with a Deep Country Heart and a guitar being his first instrument of choice, but also loves playing the piano as part of his show. "The scene in Cleveland was a true variety mixed with Blues, Rock, and Country." he recalls. "I was a big fan of the group Alabama as they kept my attention with the great harmonies they had. I got to where I kept a pretty good following."

As Rick moved the bar up each time promoting his first album "It's A Shakin' Thang", waiting and wondering which one of his songs was going to be the one that would help him get his first big break. He never lost his focus and kept his sights set on the challenge of success to stardom. Rick is also B.M.I. affiliated.

SHERRI   LYNN is  BACK!!!!

612377.jpg

In 1999 Sherri was doing good for herself.  Not only was she getting recognized for her talent as an accomplished Gospel singer, she was helping others to be recognized as well.  Sherri had a local T.V. show where she displayed the talents of local artists.  Things could not have been better.  Than, tragedy struck.

m_8cf69a85fcf4bc84f3a58bc17e0c8fa6.jpg

After a long and painful recovery process, Sherri Lynn was ready to get her career back on track, but GOD had other plans. While driving in her car, she was struck by another vehicle, sending her back to the hospital for another round of treatments. Tears flowing down her face, Sherri was determined that she would not loose her FAITH in GOD or in herself. She continued to write beautiful songs, practice her vocals and volunteer wherever they needed a singer.

sherrimike.jpg

We are very proud of Sherri Lynn and her courageous battle to beat the odds. I am pictured here with Sherri Lynn at Lizards Tavern. I will be putting up another picture with Sherri, myself, and my beautiful wife Shirley Ruth. My wife is very self-conscious about her weight, however she is just as important to our organization as I am, if not more. Sherri Lynn will be at the 10th and Holt area along the marathon route. She will be teamed up with Mark Sweetman and together they will provide some great sounds ranging from Gospel, Country, and Nostalgic pieces. Be sure to get there early.

CHUCK KESILMAN-Twelve-String Extraodinaire

chuck2.jpg

Shreveport native and Captain Shreve High School graduate Chuck Kesilman received his first guitar at the tender age of 14. After becoming frustrated with learning to play an "F" chord, he threw it out the window! During his years attending Centenary College (where he followed up his Bachelor's degree with a Master's in Elementary and Secondary Education (1980), he became so excited about The Beatles' music that he purchased a book of their songs and proceeded to learn everything in it, even though he doesn't read music. During his senior year, he performed his first concert at Centenary's Amphitheater, receiving a standing ovation from his graduating class for his outstanding performance. Since then, he has become a master of incredible detail on his famous 12-string guitar.

chuck3.jpg

After graduating from Centenary, Chuck was employed by the Juvenile Court for Caddo Parish as a Probation Officer (1980-1986). This position allowed him the chance to positively influence troubled youths with his trust, patience, and understanding. He often would give free guitar lessons to juvenile delinquents in hopes of redirecting their interest and building self esteem. Even so, his yearning to be a musician remained strong.

flydove.gif

ck1.jpg

  Chuck's next two years were with Western Union in Dallas, even though he continued to hone his musical skills by performing nights and weekends.  He subsequently returned to Srheveport, where he joined his stepfather as a partner of the Red Wing Shoe Store.  He worked hard to build the Red Wing business, but remained determined to keep his music alive.  By this time, Chuck had begun writing songs.  In fact, Red Wing was promoted for many years by a commercial jingle that Chuck wrote during this period ("Make Your Wings the Best Friend Your Feet Ever Had").

chuckcliff.jpg

We are very proud to announce that Chuck Kessilman has also signed a Recording Contract with Emerald Records, he will also be included in the E.I.A. Summer-Fest Awards Show and he will also be appearing on-stage at the Nashville Palace. This was all accomplished in 2009. In 2010, Chuck has been very busy appearing at several locations around Shreveport and will be appearing at the Naked Bean Coffee Shop on the 23rd of October, 2010.

Here is another picture of Bonnie. I believe she is trying to hide her can of Coca Cola. If you look closely you will see one of Chuck's fans bringing up the rear.

Introducing our newest musical Sensation.

tabu8.jpg

imgsrv.php.jpg

Greg Lewis II (AKA) TABU, lives in Riverside, California with his wonderful and supportive wife Alice. TABU has been honing his talents for years and has the unique ability to sing in many octaves, which is very difficult for many people to do. We can see TABU reaching stardom in a very short period of time.

tabu4.jpg

If you want people to take you seriously, you have to Dress To Impress. That goes for both men and women. Even though it is just a Karaoke Club, the next time that you visit one of these clubs, check the response of the audience. If someone gets up to sing that has just come from work and is wearing ripped jeans or women in ill fitting tank tops, look around to see if anyone is paying any attention to them. You will find that those that take the stage with an outfit like the one TABU is wearing or a women with glitter, those are the ones that the audience will pay attention to.

Introducing a man that is right on TARGET!!

Mike Archer

mikearcher1.jpg

Mike Archer is originally from Indianapolis, Indiana but now resides in Danville, Kentucky. You will be hearing a lot about this young man in the upcoming weeks and months and years, however, we wanted to introduce him to you now as a Special Treat for the Holidays. As you can see by this photo, Mike is happy with what he is doing, and has no problem taking time out for his fans. We have stressed the fact that the two most important ingredients for success is Dress to Impress and A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E. No matter how great you are, you must always remember that the reason that you are where you are is because of those people sitting in front of you. If you make them feel that they are not important for your success, you will leave with the same stack of CDs that you came with. Mike is a very accomplished performer and happy with what he is doing. He is the kind of person that we at M&S Public Relations can be proud to promote.

Be sure to watch his other videos to get a good idea of who he is

mikearcher10.jpg

Mike has enjoyed quite a bit of success since moving to Kentucky. We will update his performances as soon as we receive more information. He plays Solo or with others.

When we first began promoting artists to Emerald Records we introduced a band from Chicago called Robbins & Wheeler. They signed with us in February and were invited to participate in the Entertainer Indi-Association Award Show in April. This was less than six weeks after they signed with us. They won the over-all event and received a $5,000.00 Emerald Records Recording Contract. We did not have the proper contract with them at the time, so obviously we were left out in the cold.

Okay, now you've got my mug!! I am very proud of the accomplishments that my wife has made. She has been invited to participate in the Famous Poet's Fifteenth Anniversary Convention in Reno, Nevada for a chance to win up to $25,000.00 This will be a dream come true for her. In October she will be attending the E.I.A. Awards show as well. No matter if you are young or old, or whether or not you have a disability, never let anyone stop you from achieving your goals or seeing your dreams come true. We feel that we are right for you because we have felt the heartaches and dissapointments that you have felt and we can help you by getting you the best possible prices right across the board.

This is a picture of Shirley when she was 38. To look at this picture you would not think she had a care in the world. At 14, Shirley discovered that she suffered with Epilepsy. A few years later in the early 70's Shirley suffered an industrial accident and rupturing her lower spine had to have two steel rods inserted. Although she now suffered with both the Epilepsy compounded by the steel rods that would make most people give up, she followed her passion for writing poetry. In 1984 while crossing at street in her home town of Taunton, Massachusetts she was struck down by an automobile because the driver could not see her as the sun was blinding him. She suffered many bruises and a broken right leg in six places below the knee, three of which have never healed. I had known Shirley then for about eight months and already knew what a wonderful women she was. What I had not known at that time was that the man that she was married to at the time would beat her up several times a week (To keep in practice.)

We would like to extend a Heartfelt God Bless You to you Rick, and to all the brave men and women from the past, present, and future who have loved our country enough to defend the freedom for which it stands. In 1960, I was declared 4-F for two perforated ear drums. Three years later, after several trips to the doctor, I took the test over, passed and served in the United States Air Force from 1963 until 1968. We support all great artists, however we take special pride in supporting those who have served their country and help to keep us free. GOD BLESS YOU!!!

rickandpastorglass.jpg

With music in his lungs and God in his soul, Rick has always known that he has been in the right places at the right times and he always performs giving his audiences what they came to see and he has made a mark that will follow him all the days of his life. Pastor Glass is proud to have him by his side.

rickgrandoleopry.jpg

How many Entertainers can actually say that they have been to the Grand Ole' Opry??? This is a dream of many artists and one that has already come true for Rick Hager.The life style that you lead and the company that you keep means a lot.

rickhager1.jpg

It was during the winter of 2007 that Rick thought that this was going to be the year to finish his first album being greatful to having his own studio and being able to play all the instruments on the CD except for the Steel Guitar, where he was helped by some friends who were very accomplished in that field. After he had pressed a thousand copies of his original song which he made available for sale at all his gigs. At the delight of many of his female fans, he would autograph them as well. Seeing that his Fan base was growing, he felt that it was time for him to take the next step and began his adventure in Nashville in May 2008.

Shortly after Sherri Lynn left the hospital for the second time, she learned that her mother was dying of Cancer.  Sherri wanted so much to get her career on track, however she was the only one able to care for her mom.  She would perform locally, when she could, however Family was much more important for her than a career.  We would like to extend our condolences to Sherri Lynn at this time as her mother recently lost her battle to Cancer.  GOD BLESS you Sherri for your stength, your courage, and your commitment to Family.

m_8cf69a85fcf4bc84f3a58bc17e0c8fa6.jpg

It is a long, rough, and rocky road to the top.  Sherri has fallen, but has never refused to get back up again.  If anyone desreves the recognition it is she.  M&S Public Relations is very proud of the determination that this girl has already shown and we know that you will be also.  She has not had time to form a permanent band as yet, however she can work with a house band or she does have sound tracks.  She is willing to open for a Main act or Be the Main act.  If you would be intereseted in having her perform at your club, church, or organization contact us at our email address; michael_caron2942@hotmail.com

We are proud to announce that Sherri Lynn has been accepted to perform at this year's 500 mini marathon which will be on May 2, 2009. As soon as we find out what location she will be at we will let you know.

sherrimike1.jpg

Sherri Lynn is planning to be back in Indianapolis on May 1st in preparation for the 500 mini marathon, however if you would like to book her any time during that week, along with Mark Sweetman get in touch with that funny looking guy standing next to her. Her voice is powerful, and her Gospel songs are meaningful and thought provoking. With Sherri Lynn, teamed up with Mark Sweetman you will have the best of both worlds.

Mark not only showed us that he is a well rounded musician with his performance at our Showcase but also that he is a helpful person as well.  He offered to take pictures as well as help arrange the order of the acts.

lightning2.gif

It is relevant when you sign with us that you supply us with as many pictures as possible, let us know where you are performing, and what you are hoping to gain. Also, you need to keep in touch with us as much as possible so that we know how you are doing. In this way we can give you the maximum amount of publicity to keep you working.

While still employed at Caddo Parish, Chuck performed at such diverse locales as Centenary Coffe House, Blarney Stone, and Humphries in the Square.  It was at the Rusty Nail, however, that his performances gained recognition by his soon-to-be manager, Sam Talsky, who recognized the musical potential in this young man.

ck4.jpg

134x166.aspx.jpg

You can see by now that Chuck has had many crosses to bear, but he never abandoned his love for music.  He also served as  the Disciplinarian of University Elementary School.  He had a unique relationship with his students, who referred to him as "Mr. K."  His greatness in the position was recognized from the manner with which he used his music as a catalyst to influence his students.  He performed morale-boosting impromptu concerts at many of the area schools, achieving extraordinary results.  Many of these youngsters have now advanced to high school and beyond, but they still remember "Mr. K" as their musical hero.

chuckkesilman22.jpg

Chuck Kesilman received EIA's Most Promising GOLDEN/Writer/Musician 2009 Award at the recent taping of the EIA Awards show. He also signed a contract with Emerald Records to have his original song "Hey Rah! He's the Guitar Man" included on the Twenty-one song compilation that will be distributed World Wide. After taping of the show was completed, Chuck had the chance to talk with Cliff Ayres at the McDonald's Restaurant. During their conversation, Cliff told him that he likes his style. He further explained that he will be touring Germany later this year and asked Chuck if he would like to tour with him. Another Great opportunity. Congratulations Chuck.

This is Chuck's Album called "The Walrus and the Blackbird" which is a tribute to the Beatles. If you would like to obtain a copy, the best way is to befriend Chuck on Face Book. He is listed under Chuck Kessilman. My wife and I would not mind if you befriended us as well. I am listed as Michael J. Caron and my wife has more than one profile under either Shirley R. Caron or Shirley Ann Caron.

By making a point of taking a lot of pictures, our clients will have the chance to receive a lot of space on our website. Also, when we sign new clients, we ask if they have any videos on You Tube. Those will be shown here as well. In the future, we plan to expand our website to give each client their own page. Therefore, if someone is looking for a particular artist all they have to do is go to that artists page. Work with us, listen to us, and your dreams will come true.
~Mike~

tabu1.jpg

Although he keeps himself very busy performing at weddings, Corporate Functions, Picnics, and private parties, TABU tries to find the time to perform at local Karaoke Clubs as well, much to the delight of others in attendance.

Man Playing Guitar with Family

It is called working the crowd. Chuck Kesilman sings a lot of Beatles' songs. From time to time he will call someone out of the audience to do a duet with him. Sherri Lynn has been known to leave the stage and walk into the audience and sing directly to the crowd. Michael Deese can be seen at the town square most weekends playing and singing with local bands. If he notices faces in the crowd that are new, he will welcome them to Mountain View. Depending on the setting of the venue, depends on what types of liberties you can take. The bottom line is this. If you show your audience in one way or the other that you do care that they took the time to come and listen to you, they will be back and they will buy your CDs. They are helping you climb that ladder so be sure to include them in your performance. Even if it is just to mingle with them during breaks in sets, signing autographs and asking what songs they would like to hear. That beer to quench your thirst can wait, your fans can't and won't.

Check out Mike Archer's website now for more information on this Rising Star.

Rick Hager and the Country Hoodlums

rickingermanycountryhoodlums.jpg

During his seven year stint in the U.S. Army Rick was stationed in Germany for his last three years where he had a local band called The Country Hoodlums. They played on the Club system and enjoyed a large following of Fans all over Germany. We at M&S Public Relations (aka) Family Values Promotions, do not want to skip over this information lightly. We are honored to represent those artists that have shone a LOVE for our country and have put on the uniform of our Armed Forces and decided to make an effort to keep our country FREE!! Rick not only did his Patriotic Duty freely but when it came time to pack his belongings and come home, he decided instead to re-enlist. That in itself is showing a True Love for his country, however he took the extra steps to show what American's are truly made of by teaming up with the locals, forming a band and touring the country. This, my friends, is the True Spirit of what American's are all about.

For those of you who follow Country/Gospel music, this beautiful face will look familiar to you.  Sherri Lynn lives in Olive Hills, Kentucky and was well on her way to achieving her goals as a Country/Gospel star.  However, back in 1999 tragedy struck, that forced her to put her career on hold.

Sherri Lynn is pictured here with her daughter Dawn.

Sherri Lynn is more comfortable singing for Church Groups, Corporate Functions and Festivals, however as we knew that she would be in Indianapolis on April 16th for briefing on the 500 mini marathon where she will be performing with Mark Sweetman listed below, we did not have much time to find a suitable venue for her. Lizards Tavern agreed to allow Sherri Lynn to do a couple of numbers before their band showed up. This agreement came on April 15th, therefore Sherri Lynn had no prior knowledge of the commitment. Sherri and her family left Olive Hill, Kentucky at 6:30am, drove for four and a half hours and arrived at our apartment at 10:30am. We had already arranged a Noodle Taste Testing event at The Noodle Company that had just opened in the Greenwood area. This was from 1:00pm until 2:00pm. We taped a commercial at the event and when we were finished there we basically had to rush to get her downtown for the briefing. After the briefing we went back to the apartment for about a half hour before heading to The Lizards Tavern. We arrived at Lizards around 7:00pm and were greeted by Mark Sweetman who had arrived early. I would like to point out at this time that Lizards Tavern is mostly Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, so bringing a Country/Gospel artist in there was like sending the Christians to the arena and releasing the Lions. When Sherri Lynn began her performance a strange thing happened. The people liked it. I had advised her not to do that many Gospel songs and she complied, however as we were packing up because the band said that we had to leave, the waitress called me over and said that Dennis wanted Sherri Lynn to sing a Gospel song. I told the waitress Missy, very pretty girl, that the band said that we had to leave. Dennis owns the tavern and his daughter Liz runs it. Dennis went over. talked to the band leader and told Sherri to sing as many songs as she wanted to. It was a very enjoyable evening and the applause from the audience was fantastic. This Christian beat the Lions. Way to go, Sherri Lynn.

Summer-Fest Awards show that we believe will be taped on the 26th and 27th of June at the Famous Nashville Palace in Nashville, Tennessee.

Although the whole day was wonderful and the music was fantastic, this was the highlight of my evening. Shirley has been having a lot of medical problems and her feet have been swollen. She was in her wheelchair the entire day. Shirley asked me to dance. When she lifted herself out of the wheelchair she said, "Honey, you're going to have to support me." to which I replied, "That's why I'm here." Love totally and that love will be returned ten fold. So, now you know what our business is really all about. We need money to keep us going, but we need Love to see us through.

GOD BLESS YOU

  Talsky encouraged Chuck to move to Denver to work with Nero Enterprises as an opening act for Julian Lennon's concert at Red Rock.  His show was a tribute to Julian's father, the Late John Lennon, where he was hailed as the "World's Greatest Single Solo 12-String Beatles Guitarist." He also ignited audiences at elite area night spots, confirming Talsky'sexpectations, who estimated he would reach Super Stardom within the next two to five years.  Unfortunetely, due to Talsky's sudden and untimely death, this would not happen so soon.  Grief-stricken and without a manager, Chuck left his dream behind and moved to Dallas.

When you listen to TABU sing, you can't help but want to get up and dance. It is usually more fun if you have someone to dance with. People don't give you funny looks that way.

Where can TABU go from here? In the seven plus years that we have been in business, this is the fastest turn-a-round that we have seen yet. After the shows are aired, the station receives feed-back from listeners around the world. As the traffic is quite heavy, it will take time to sort it out. Once the station manager plus the producer (Mister Cliff Ayres) determines where the most responses are coming from {i.e, united States, Africa, Japan,ect.} they will be able to determine where to focus the talent. TABU will be contacted with the results and also with a course of action to further his career.At any rate the course taken will be UP!!!!

tabu3.jpg

If you have the talent that we are looking for, we can get you recognition. How long will it take? Who knows. Every client is different. Four days after I sent Tabu's information into Nashville, I heard from Tabu saying that three renditions of songs that he performed would be featured on the Nashville Broadcasting Radio Network in an hour long show. This is an internet radio station that has a lot of influences. When Tabu's songs were aired they were not just heard through the one station but stations in four other countries as well, giving him an audience of well over four million listeners. You can go to the station and request the show that aired on Saturday October 2, 2010 from 2-3pm Nashville Time.

Check out TABU's voice now. Just click here.

For men or women in the Greenwood, Indiana area. There is a lot of untapped talent in our area. We cannot possibly visit every Karaoke club or venues where local talent perform, however if you enjoy listening to good music and would like to help us, we would appreciate it. In the past, when possible, we would video-tape performers, (with their permission) and several of them were recognized in Nashville. Since then, we have not had the extra help available. The pay is not good, however when a performer does sign with us, they pay $100.00 as our fee. 10% of that would go to the person that brought them to us, plus other considerations. as I said, the pay is not good, but if you would enjoy doing this, let us hear from you.
