HC Derksen

HC Derksen resides in Iowa. He began writing his own music three years ago but he began strumming his guitar when he was 13. A self-taught musician, HC perfected his vocals with the help of an operatic voice teacher. He has performed at numerous churches over the years, singing music created by others to the enjoyment of all who listened. His mellow sound soothes his listeners, both men and women.

Since releasing his first CD, HC has performed around the country at music festivals and in churches. He has performed at motorcycle rallies and at conferences where Christians and non-Christians find his music to be a gift they want to take with them.

Here is what some people say about HC Derksen:

   Being a veteran who served overseas, I especially like "God Bless America". It reminds me of why I served in the military - protecting our freedoms. It raises strong emotions every time I listen to it. Arne

   The song you wrote for your son's wedding, "Two Hearts Into One", has a very meaningful message about relationships. All couples - married or planning to marry - should listen to. It is a very special song. Gleva

   "A Different man" should be an encouragement to everyone that we can all change - leave our past life behind and accept Jesus Christ as our personal Savior and start living a life with Him as our guide and companion. It has a great message. A friend

   Overall, the CD is great, words and music. We especially like the mix of reverent and upbeat music on the same CD. Our granddaughter has learned the music and words since she hears your CD when she rides in our car. Keep following God's leading and write more songs for us to enjoy. Heather Burton
