Captain RW Biography

The Man who goes by the name "Captain RW", has always been committed to defining his own
sound. A veteran showman and genuine entertainer in the classic sense of the word, he delights
audiences with a blend of standards, jazz, easy rock, insperationals, rhythm & Blues, and
Vegas-style show stoppers. "We're producing our music with the sounds that work for us, not
with what some A&R pro thinks is the industry's fancy, explains RW. On every track of
self-produced CD's like "LeRoy & Bubba", "I Just Want To Walk With You", and "Freedom Isn't
Free", you'll find traces of his long and winding musical path as well as a sincerity that is hard to
come by these days.

Captain RW began his performing career playing piano, organ and guitar as a youth of sixteen
with the World Christian Church in St. Louis, Missouri. By age eighteen he had become Musical
Director and Producer of the World Crusade For Christ radio show, airing on 153 stations
worldwide. He then shifted his focus to live music and hit the nightclub circuit, signing with an
entertainment agency (ACA )out of Milwakee, WI and toured across 44 states and Canada for
many years. In 1976 he caught a recording break when his song "Turn Around" was produced by
Nashville steel player Pete Drake, and recorded at Radio City Recorders. It hit the Billboard
Charts as pick hit of the week for two weeks in a row. Soon after he had a chance to record at
Sigma Studio and Future Gold in Philadelphia, accompanied by sections of the Philadelphia
Philharmonic.

Eventually, Captain RW settled in Florida where he started a sportfishing charter business called
"Happy Hooker One Sportfishing Charters", and also put together a state-of-the-art digital
recording studio, inde label, and publishing company. His two fold objective with BWC is to
cater to music's middle of the road pop and rock market with a focus on rock, rhythm & blues and
pop vocals, and to expand on those styles by introducing more contemporary production sounds
to the genre. "I figured if I liked different types of music, there must be other people out there
who felt the same way". His hunch was correct and the feedback has been encouraging. His new
album "LeRoy & Bubba", crosses the span from rhythm & blues, easy listening ballads, rock, and
pop.

The album is entirely written, lyrics, music, arrangements, and vocals by Captain RW. He also
plays all of the different instruments on the album himself, records all the tracks himself, mixes
and masters it himself. We hope the music brightens your day in some way.
