To The Fallen Records

If you ask Soldier Hard what has gotten him to where he is today, he’ll say “Determination & the will to carry on.” So it wasn’t a surprise, that his new full length & 10th CD is titled “The Military Collection” shows just that. It is a compilation of his last 9 CD projects he released throughout the years. The CD project contains some of his Military themed songs determined to make his mark in the music world by speaking up for our troops, veterans, & military supporters.
A native Californian, Soldier Hard’s career began in Hip-Hop music performing in local bars & clubs in his hometown of Vallejo. He became inspired to write songs at the age of fourteen and at nineteen he enlisted in the United States Army where he found himself writing songs detailing the life of an Armed Forces Military Service Member. Soldier Hard’s belief in explaining to the world the “military life” led him to an opportunity to dedicate his music career to cater to military personnel, their families, and all military supporters. In doing so, he was given the alias “The Voice for our Troops” by those same supporters.
Influenced by Abraham Lincoln for his determination to never give up, Pat Tillman for his selfless service to our country & Bob Marley for his musical & writing skills, combine all three and you get Soldier Hard. In 2005-2006, Soldier Hard was deployed to Iraq as a Lead Vehicle Gun Truck Commander. On his free time he began writing & recording for his CD, “The Deployment.” In 2007, after returning to Ft Bliss, TX he released “The Deployment” CD.
“The Deployment is the most memorable CD project to this date. I was in Iraq and created a CD, not many people can say that they did the same. It’s amazing how I can put my heart and soul into a project, and actually hearing the music as time goes by, it brings me back to a time and place in my life I’d prefer to forget, but I know there are many troops out there that can relate to it, so I keep spreading our stories in respect for all our troops. They’re the most amazing people in this world.”

“Any troubadour can write a song about the war — almost none write from the side of having served in one. Soldier Hard brings the battle home in more ways than one.”  says Jennifer Maerz a reporter from the San Francisco Weekly

Soldier Hard is currently promoting his CD “The Military Collection” and performing for Troops, Veterans, Military Families, & Military Supporters all across the United States. Recently he received proclamations from Mayor Buddy Dyr, Mayor of the city of Orlando, Florida and Mayor Anniese D. Parker, Mayor of the city of Houston Texas, for performing for Local Veterans, Military Personnel, and Military Families.
The positive energy, love for this country, and an outstanding performer are what you experience when you meet Soldier Hard. ?He is one talented and very humble person you’ll ever meet,” says Garren Cone, President of AVET Project Inc. a non-profit who assists all veterans.
When Soldier Hard is not writing, recording or touring, he enjoys spending time with his family.
