About Stephen William Tarak
My mother was a classically trained pianist, studying from youth until she left high school. She always had a variety of music playing in our home - the old, the new, all styles. It made me appreciate it all and marinated me in rhythms and harmonies, arrangements and groove. It's interesting when I hear some people slam this, or that type of music. It's like only enjoying one type of cookie when ... read more

12-17-2020 I lost a friend to this Covid stuff. I'm a man of great faith, but I am sometimes left with more questions than answers. I'm aware of one thing - our time is short. I'll use this musical gift until I"m face to face with the One who gave it to me. Whoever you are and whatever you do, I hope you do it with all that is in you, with passion and without regret. There is new music here and my heart's hanging on my sleeve. I hope you find something in the songs that you can hold on to. Peace - Stephen

Hey everyone! Summer has come and it's time again for sunny days, warm nights, summer breezes and MUSIC! We have all shared in some incredible times. Now, let's share them together in peace with family and friends, and share some love with those around us. Music speaks a language all it's own - and to everyone. It soothes. It heals. It reaches the places deep inside. I'm stoked to be a part of the many incredible Indiana musicians and artists sharing their gifts and talents with you. It's time again.
Let's do this !!

I've been looking at the world around me. The many changes and incredible events and people. A very cool aspect of the times is the many, many artists, musicians, bands, singers and songwriters that seemed to come out of nowhere - sharing their musical gifts with the world. How cool is that? I've even had the blessing of many people looking and sharing the music I've posted here. It took me to #1 in Indiana several times. And I'm truly thankful. I've seen some AMAZING talent in the past few months. It's really inspiring. I wrote a song awhile back called "Time goes by". The song is about using every moment we have to the fullest. One line in it : "ya got to move it or you lose it 'cuz you know that the time goes by" - says it all. Some say life is what you make it, and I'd agree. I'm choosing peace. I'm choosing love. I'm choosing to look at the people around me through different eyes. And you know, this world is filled with beautiful people. I'd encourage you all to do the same. Stop in again. The music changes often. Perhaps you'll find something you like !
Peace - and be nice today!

Hey everybody! January has been surprisingly warm in Indy, and the musical ideas are HOT! I've begun recording some new material ! The contemporary worship album is near completion, and I've started on a blues rock album called "Red, hot and blue". Love that name. I'll have some songs for you soon. The fire still burns ! The songs here have made it to #1 because of all of you. Super appreciative of the kind words and thoughts sent. It feels like family. Keep listening and thanks again for all your support! - Stephen
