Black Notes Biography (Unfinished)

First off, something so incredible and precise has and is currently developing in a small little town in the state of South Dakota. Something so intense, yet relaxing. Something many dream of and others idolize. That something I am referring to is the upcoming production of variations in vibrations or sounds, something we like to call, music.

Music's magic penetrates to every single individual in some way, shape or form. Certain people may use songs to relate to specific emotions such as fear, anger, depression, guilt or on the other side of the spectrum, peace, love, or joy. Memorizing lyrics and singing along is a perfect example of music's effect on our emotions, as we may express our feelings through poetic words and sentences or otherwise through the different noises in addictive instrumental melodies.

As we break down and interpret music, we may notice the two most major aspects of what goes into a song. Every song has its beat or instruments, and vocals or some type of man made language structure.

This leads in to the main source of discussion for this writing, the relation of the creation progress in a talented musical expression group, the Black Notes. Although technically Black Notes could be considered a band with multiple members, I want to look at the very birth or initial steps of how the talent, determination, and motivation have been continously increasing their exposure to the general public.

Perhaps the first person to catch people's attention to the music group is Shandon 'Keyz' Jones. Born in Phoenix, AZ, Keyz has lived in several different areas of the country while gaining his stable high school education in a small Minnesota town named Pipestone. Some common traits of Shandon would most notably be his physical talents. Currently, he is wide receiver for a D2 college, Black Hills State University, in Spearfish, SD. Playing college sports is a life many dream of accomplishing in itself. Obviously it is easy to note the athletic potential in Shandon.

However, friends and family whom know Keyz on a personal basis know that Shandon is much more unique than most others by his sense of sarcasm and perhaps one of the most out-going personalities you may ever have the chance to come across in life.
