Sonny comes from an extended family of musicians. His mother Gloria was a talented singer and his father Frank was a song writer and professional piano player. Sonny began playing piano at seven years old when his father started giving him lessons based on the traditional piano instruction method. After studying classical music for a couple of years, he learned the chord method of piano playing and thereafter, began developing the ability to play and enjoy pop, rock, and jazz music.

He always had a knack for improvising and through the years studied with an assortment of teachers but it wasn't until he studied with New York City Master Jazz Improvisation Teacher and Artist, Connie Crothers, a student and colleague of the late, great Jazz Pianist, Lennie Tristano, that he broke through to becoming the piano player that he is today.

His love affair with pianos dates back to the German Upright and Chickering Baby Grand Pianos that his parents owned and he played while growing up in their household. The first grand piano he himself owned was an 1892, 6'3" Chickering Grand Piano. The sublime tone and responsive action of this classic piano so impressed him that he immediately became intrigued with the world of pianos.    

Sonny's Piano TV Show is the first "piano & wellness" variety TV show on the internet, cable, or network TV. Informative and entertaining, this completely original video show plays 24/7 at SonnysPianoTV.com and weekly on LONG Island Cablevison stations.

Over the past 15 years, Sonny has created an innovative, interactive, all video website and TV channel completely devoted to pianos, music, health and well being. Through his website  www.SonnysPianoTV.com he also buys and sells pre-owned pianos. He currently sells over 90% of his pianos online via creative video tours wherein he plays and demonstrates his pianos for sale for all the world to see. He has a solid reputation and backs all sales with warranties and a team of refinishers and piano repair staff to assure excellence. Many customers are pleasantly surprised at how accessible he makes himself, still speaking directly with most customers and providing genuine advice with his extensive knowledge of pianos. He ships all over the country and this year, the business has expanded to such places as Taiwan, Canada, England and Australia. The business continues to expand and with it, Sonny's Internet presence has grown.

Recently, Sonny came up with another internet / social media innovation, called "Sonny's Win A Free Steinway Contest" on Facebook. He has just completed his fourth contest and the results are nothing short of phenominal. Over 100 countries participated, casting votes for their favorite contestants who uploaded videos of themselves playing the piano into Sonny's contest. The Grand Prize is a Knabe Baby Grand Piano. Two other pianos, a Steinway upright and an Aeolian player piano and other prizes will be awarded to the lucky winners and runner-ups. His audience participation has expanded to over 100 countries around the world. Over the course of 4 contests Sonny has given away over 14 pianos to the winners around the USA.    

Along with being a musician, Sonny has had an extensive career in the health, fitness, wellness, sports medicine and stress-management fields. As a child Sonny suffered from a crippling case of asthma. Over a period of five years, he experienced frequent serious attacks. But at the age of 10, his mother brought him to Doctor Irma Urbano, who put him on a nightly regimen of stretching, diaphragmatic breathing and relaxation exercises. After just two months of doing this regimen he was cured. He realized the healing, therapeutic, life-renewing, energy-enhancing benefits of these kinds of methods and continued doing his routine every night thereafter. As a result of learning how to breathe diaphragmatically and to relax, Sonny went on as a teenager to become a champion baseball and track athlete. He was the Captain of the X-Country, Indoor and Outdoor Track Teams at Carey H.S. in Franklin Square, NY where he won MVP awards and still holds the half mile record.

He earned a full tuition athletic track scholarship to Adelphi University where he graduated with a degree in History Education. After graduating, he studied all forms of exercise, relaxation training and stress reduction so that he could better understand and help others with these kinds of techniques. A few years later, he earned his masters degree in Exercise Physiology from Adelphi University. As a corporate stress & fitness consultant, yoga teacher, sports coach, sports medicine clinician, stress management consultant and exercise teacher, he has helped thousands of children and adults to reduce stress and anxiety, improve health, enhance classroom and sports performance and enjoy a more relaxed life and a greater sense of well being.

His piano playing and teaching methods are also based on the ability to breathe diaphragmatically, relax, get into the flow, enjoy and let go. He calls this method Sonny's Piano Yoga and he put together a DVD Kit called Sonny's PIANO YOGA, Play Piano Instantly With Little or No Sheet Music in 2005. This method enabled people who had never played piano before to start making beautiful music. In 2023 he published Sonny's Piano Yoga Book, The Breathe, Relax, Flow and Enjoy, Mindfulness Method for playing Piano Instantly & Connecting To Your Musician Within for Health & Wellbeing.

He feels that piano playing is a wonderful, therapeutic, life-enhancing, stress-reducing vehicle that everyone can enjoy.

Bob Williams is the Founder and CEO of Ranch Hands Rescue. After suffering a stroke in 2007, Bob decided to retire from Motorola. After a year of rehabilitation, he decided to start a not-for-profit organization that would save animals and help people. In 2008, Ranch Hands Rescue was born, and a farm animal sanctuary for animals with special needs was established. In 2010, the Ranch Hands Rescue Counseling Program was started. Bob's vision was to partner abused and neglected animals with individuals by using Equine and Animal Assisted Counseling in an effort to help individuals who don't respond to traditional therapy. His counseling program is the only program in the country that partners abused and neglected animals in mental health therapy. Bob's passion is helping innocent victims, especially children, who require a nontraditional approach to uncovering severe trauma. He assembled a team of counseling experts who are highly trained and certified in trauma and PTSD to be another resource in our community to help individuals who are suffering and see no hope.

RHR fills a special niche in mental health counseling services community in that we specialize in treating the more complex trauma cases, such as victims of multiple abuses by multiple perpetrators and people not making progress in their current treatment programs.

Bob and Ranch Hands Rescue have been featured in over 220 TV and news stories including Animal Planet, Time Magazine, Fox Worldwide News, USA Today, CNN, Good Morning America and National Geographic. Bob recently announced plans to open the first safe house for young men 18-24 who have been sex trafficked. Bob's House of Hope will be the first in the country to do this.

Ranch Hands Rescue is currently working on a National Education Program to educate the public that boys are sex trafficked too. Ranch Hands Rescue has 2 locations. One in Argyle, Texas and one in Denton, Texas and serves the entire Metroplex. Bobs personal story as a survivor of rape, addiction, homelessness, and his story of rebuilding his life along with his passion for helping others is why Ranch Hands Rescue continues to grow. 5 Time Emmy Winner Doris Roberts said “He was one of the most incredible speakers I have ever heard, his honesty and his passion is contagious. His journey needs to be heard by everyone who has struggled with sexual abuse, rape, or addiction. I think he is amazing, and I am proud to be his friend.”

Landon Dickeson is an accomplished mental health professional with over a decade of experience in the field. He serves as the Executive Director for Ranch Hands Rescue and Bob’s House of Hope. Landon has worked with thousands of trauma survivors, and this vast
experience has driven his passion to create treatment programs for those with complex PTSD.

Landon graduated from the University of North Texas with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, after which he obtained state licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Landon has experience working with high-risk youth, dual diagnosis, suicide loss, sexual assault/abuse trauma, Veteran trauma, and male victims of Commercial Sexual Exploitation (CSE). He has been trained in Crisis Intervention, Risk of Harm Assessment, EMDR, Equine and Animal Assisted Counseling, DBT, TBRI, TF-CBT,
Psychological First Aid, and more.

Landon’s passion for education led him to create several trainings to increase understanding of complex trauma, sex trafficking, and overlooked populations. His speaking engagements have included the JuST Conference, TNOYS Conference, DFPS
Conference, Humanymal International Conference, numerous webinars, local events, and news stories. Landon also helped launch the first state- and nationwide billboard campaign, called #BoysToo, to educate the public about the sex trafficking of males. After years
of treating sexual abuse and trafficking victims, Landon helped create the first safe house program in the country for male victims of sex trafficking, Bob’s House of Hope.

I am a free spirit. I love the water, I love to surf and teach others how to surf. I get so passionate to share my love of surfing and the ocean with others, especially other women. It brings me great joy to show women how to navigate the ocean and flow with the waves in each of our own unique ways.

A bit about me:

I grew up always the last one to get out of the water, whether it was a lake, pool or the ocean. The water has been my special place, the one place where I can always go to feel totally free and to be me.

When I was 17 I moved to Kauai with my sisters and I went to massage school and fell in love instantly.I knew right then and there, I had found another passion. When I’m not running surf retreats or with my daughter I spend my time doing bodywork. I love connecting with others from a present space.

Love you ALL, Let's SURF

From April to June 2020, Vito DiSalvo completed a longtime bucket list item of composing his “Symphony No. 1.”  Composing this symphony and creating the virtual orchestral recording was his ‘pandemic passion project.’

For the past six years, Vito DiSalvo has served as music director and pianist for The Sicilian Tenors touring with them throughout the United States.

In 2019, DiSalvo completed the motion picture score for the newly released Little Italy Productions film, “That’s Amore”, starring Tammy Pescatelli, Dave Petti, Joe Puglisi, and the late Barbara Russell.  You can view the official movie trailer by visit “That’s Amore” on IMDB:  “That’s Amore” is currently available for streaming on your favorite movie streaming sites.

Vito DiSalvo’s musical background and leadership have taken him to concert stages from the Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio tri-state area, where he originated and lead the popular dance band, WE THREE; and now to film scoring credits in “That’s Amore”.  DiSalvo also garnered screen credits in the Julia Roberts Sony Film, “Eat Pray Love”, having two of his We Three recordings in the film:  The classic ‘wedding tarantella’ “Tarantella Napoletana” and an original that he penned in 1987, “Tarantella Americana.”  He also earned performing credits (accordion) on the film, “A Wedding for Bella” aka “The Bread My Sweet”.  In the mid 2000’s, Vito played piano for a short stint for the singing group “The Lettermen.”  Vito also produced a PBS special with his group We Three and American tenor, Matt Morgan.   He traveled to South Africa, Europe, Australia, Canada and China where he conducted and performed on both piano and accordion as Music Director for international singers Giorgia Fumanti and Patrizio Buanne.  Vito was also privileged to play accordion for world-renowned tenor, the late Luciano Pavarotti, for his Pittsburgh concerts, as well as to have performed on the Grammy Award winning Jazz album for the late Nancy Wilson, “Turned To Blue.”

In February 1977, DiSalvo started Mifflin Hills Music Co as a publishing company and served for the next thirty years as an umbrella company for all he did in the music business.  In 2007, Mifflin Hills Music Publishing LLC became solely a music publishing company and MHM Productions LLC was formed as a record label and artist management company.   With Mifflin Hills Music Publishing LLC being a BMI affiliate, DiSalvo, in 2019 started Parkridge Music Publishers LLC to accommodate ASCAP writers.  Mr. DiSalvo and his companies have published choral music and numerous symphonic band compositions and plan to publish his “Symphony No. 1”.    He has also produced nearly thirty albums for his MHM label.  His original music has been performed on the HBO series “The Sopranos,” on national advertisements and for the past fifteen years on the promotional videos and national television advertisements for Perillo Tours.  His music has also appeared in an independent comedy film, as well as several documentary films.  

Vito DiSalvo also collaborated with Pittsburgh radio legend, Jack Bogut, on five recording projects featuring “Story Teller Jack’s” original stories and DiSalvo’s original music; “The Joys of Growing Up Italian”, “Big Sky Café”, “Mental Movies”, “Word Painter”, and “Past Present Accounted For”.

Earning a Bachelor of Science Degree in Music Education from Duquesne University in May 1973, DiSalvo was honored by Duquesne in 1977 with the prestigious Distinguished Alumni Award in recognition of his outstanding achievements and contributions to the fields of music and music education. Vito furthered his musical education earning a Master of Music Degree in Theory/Composition from the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida in 1975 where he studied with such distinguished composers as the late Clifton Williams, the late John Kinyon, and the late Alfred Reed.

In 2008, the National Italian Sports Hall of Fame honored Vito DiSalvo as their “Education Professional of the Year.”

Ann has over 25 years experience as a clinical & therapeutic counsellor. She has worked across many fields
including -  Mental Health, Crisis & Welfare, Advocacy, Education, Relationships & Family, Suicide prevention,
Domestic Violence, Sex Education/ Mentoring, Female Sexuality, Sexual trauma, Research & most recently Spiritual Counsel / Guidance.
The Journey has been a diverse & convoluted one, beginning  in the not for profit / welfare sector,
to the Government medical sector, then into private practice.

After re-locating to the country in 2015, Ann established a new private practice Margaret River Counselling & Healing,
offering Relationship, intimacy and sex counselling /education. She became a certified Female sexuality educator,
as her work was becoming more exclusively focused on women suffering childhood & sexual trauma.
She also ran women's sex & intimacy education workshops, helping women reclaim their sexual identity.

Around the same time, having been certified as a  Theta-healing® practitioner for 20 years, Ann recognised the need
to incorporate a more "spiritually centered" component to her therapeutic practice, & began offering this as a modality in healing.
As part of this therapeutic metamorphosis & perhaps as a reflection of her own spiritual evolution, she became more aligned
with the spiritual aspects of her work. It became clear that the old paradigm of her original therapeutic work was being surpassed
by something far greater and more holistic. So in 2019, she terminated her counselling practice and created Orion Metaphysical.
In addition to this spiritual transformation, Ann went on to qualify as a Level 3 QHHT® Hypnotist & past life regressionist -
Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique ®
This ground breaking work was created by Dolores Cannon - leading edge Hypnotist, Past life regressionist and healer.
Dolores spent nearly 50 years conducting & documenting her healing hypnosis work on thousands of clients across the globe,
contributing greatly to spiritual and metaphysical studies and research via her 18 published books.

Ann's work is never stagnant, as she continues to expand & evolve.
In mid- late 2019, she experienced a debilitating mystery illness. Through her daily meditations, she was instructed by Source (God)
how to heal her body without medical intervention. These steps became the outline for the course she created in October of that year
the  Metaphysical Healing Meditations .

The Meditations have now been converted into a wonderful guided healing handbook called 
"By Divine Instruction - Lessons in Metaphysical Healing" 
published Nov 2023
OUT NOW!

Ann believes her work is no longer a Profession but rather a Vocation as she moves
into a very heart-centered way of working inclusively for the betterment of each individual she works with.
Her goal has always been to help people heal. Because only through healing can one truly live in joy.
And there is nothing more beautiful & heart warming than seeing a Human Being finally recover, releasing themselves from a life
of suffering & evolving into a Shining Beacon of Light.
Because these are the Humans who offer Humanity Hope, that they too can free themselves of their shackles
& live the life they truly deserve to live. And so can YOU.

The Tin Drum Family Band

The Tin Drum Family Band was born out of an unlikely space that Covid provided the Drummond family. Burleigh Drummond and Mary Harris (Tin Drum) married for 40 years and longtime veterans of the music world, recording and touring with Ambrosia, Tin Drum, Jimmy Buffett, Animal Logic, and The Lost Dogs, Mighty Mo Rodgers, etc., were suddenly home and reunited with their grown children Burleigh McDowall Drummond (Micky) and Sierra Drummond.

And both son and daughter brought forth their own creativity having become accomplished writers and musicians in their own right. So four musicians stuck in the same house/studio, what do you do? You play in a band and record an album that the whole family contributes to, in a place that helped sustain and inspire you. “Emerson Street,” now available on all music streaming services.

When my 40 year old husband Collin died after an 18 month battle with leukemia, I was lost and broken. Feelings of intense sadness, anguish, and despair consumed me. I was empty and lonely, and the one person that I wanted to talk to, who I needed to talk to, was gone. This triggered anger, guilt, and confusion on how to move forward in my life. I felt isolated and detached from others because no one could relate to what I was feeling. This social disconnection worsened my pain. Everyone told me I was so strong, but I didn’t feel strong, I felt broken and I longed and mourned for my old life. I was drowning in emotional and physical pain, I couldn’t eat, sleep, or focus on daily tasks or make simple decisions. I struggled to be there for myself; let alone our four children who were also confused and grieving. I had lost my identity, and I didn’t recognize who I was anymore. But I knew I couldn’t let my children lose both parents, I was determined to RISE and thrive.

I realized that I wouldn’t be able to face the grief alone, so I reached out to others. I sought help from professionals, family, and friends. I read and researched everything I could find on the subject of grieving. I focused on my spiritual journey and made self-care a priority. I also chose to share my journey of healing with others. I received thousands of messages from others who felt stuck in their grief and also desired emotional healing and personal growth.

I know it is my calling to share my story and help others who are suffering from grief transform their life while reclaiming their joy. I can now look at the life I shared with my husband and view it through lenses of gratitude and love, which is something that I will forever be grateful for.
