Rich Cabela, Wayne Schmitt, and Tom Schmitt are songwriters. Their writing is a blend of Rock, Country, Pop, R&B, Folk, Christian, and AC/Soft Rock.

Harmonizing Life Through Music

In the grand symphony of existence, each of us is bestowed with a unique voice—a vessel through which we perceive and interpret the world. This gift of expression lies at the heart of our humanity, waiting for us to wield it purposefully. When do we choose to raise our voices? How do we channel our inner melodies into the world?

For the Cabela and Schmitt trio, the answer lies in the cadence of song. Music, like a timeless companion, joins them on their lifelong journey. It is their chosen medium—a canvas where thoughts, beliefs, and emotions converge. Through harmonies and lyrics, they weave their narratives, exposing the raw essence of their souls.

A Journey Unfolds

Over four decades ago, the trio embarked on a writing odyssey—a pilgrimage of scattered thoughts and random musings. Their pens danced across pages, tracing the contours of existence. In this creative pilgrimage, they crafted soundscapes that resonate deeply with life’s intricate tapestry. Each note became a brushstroke, painting emotions across the canvas of time.

The Alchemy of Melody

Melodies arrive unbidden, like divine whispered secrets. Suddenly, the fragments coalesce—a mental puzzle assembling itself. Phrases fall into place, and the sounds unfold within their hearts. These musical gifts are meant to be shared, to resonate beyond their own souls. They transcend the boundaries of self, reaching out to touch others.

A Legacy in Harmony

This digital haven—their sanctuary—holds their compositions. Here, their music finds its home, waiting for curious ears. They hope to leave behind a legacy—a symphony that echoes through generations. As the notes linger in the air, may they stir emotions, spark memories, and connect hearts. For music, like life, is a shared experience—an eternal conversation between souls.
