Whisper to be Heard

Clutched deep in the icy palms of a relentless February winter 2019, we find a mad man on a mission, one Mike Bruckman, looking pensively out over the frozen lake. In a world full of chaos and noise, competition and ego, this quiet lake view had become his sanctuary teaching him each day the value of silence and the power of a whisper. He longed to share his lessons with the world, this concept that to succeed as an artist one must only have faith, passion, and willpower. There was no need for worry, no need for gusto or cheap tricks for attention. No need for fame or hassle. No need to struggle or yell into the void. This man knew well, that sometimes you simply had to Whisper To Be Heard And thus The Whisper Project was born.

Mike had a fearless idea, an abundance of musical talent, an endless list of fantastical friends just as talented (see: crazy) as he, and - the keys to a mansion.

No lengthy process of forming a band and writing songs and struggling and fighting to get by. No, in his world things just seemed to flow more naturally, like the waters on the lake his home overlooked. He knew, success was easy. And he knew he was going to get what he wanted, by whispering, instead of laboriously struggling to get there. so with just a hat full of ideas he had a plan. Get musicians and artists together from all over Ohio, the country, hell all over the world who have never met one day in their life, come together and live in the mansion for one week, which he dubbed Music Week with the goal in mind to write, fund, and record an album by the weeks end. How could this be possible? Well in Mikes world, anything is possible, all it takes is...
