Let me introduce myself

Hello, I’m John Strouse.

Having been aware of spirit for decades, connecting with spirit people is commonplace to me. This connection is called mediumship. It is a mental and emotional blending with the surviving consciousness of the departed for the purpose of communicating. 

In early 2008, I repeatedly experienced a vision in which I was approached from the Other Side, the world of spirit, and asked to work on a project with the surviving consciousness of deceased celebrities. This project would be a final tribute, possibly one last understanding of their circumstances and would include me composing a song while in a mediumship state of mind. I doubted the reality of it all, especially since I am not a song writer, but something compelling had overtaken my doubts and I agreed to explore this request further.

As I mentioned, I am not a songwriter. In fact, reflecting on my experience as a trumpet player in my younger years, I’ve come to realize I am most certainly tone-deaf, but my passion for mediumship and this project has taken me this far.

In my doubtful moments I am reminded of my mentor’s mantra: “You will never be 100% certain the experience you are having is true.”      (Gladys Osborne Leonard)
