Moder served 4 years in the United States Army as a 19D Cavalry Scout (Combat Reconnaissance) in addition to working many odd jobs prior to fully investing into his personal musical and entrepreneurial dreams & inner potential. Through trials, tribulations, and challenging life obstacles these experiences have helped mold Mr. Moder into the person he is today. These experiences help strengthen his willpower, re-fuel his determination, and urge him to always rise above the situation to this very day. Each hardship survived has contributed to the awakening of a passion within his heart. His passion burns hot; focused on helping everyone by means of motivational messages within and outside of his music, he delivers it with what he refers to as “Optimistic realism” or “Modervation”. Colorfully depicting the array of love, pain, setbacks, victories, lessons, and pleasures each of us experience throughout our lives, this young artist aims to make use of his own experiences in an entertaining way while also providing enlightenment to those who dive deeper into the lyrics. Moder encourages every person that his words reach to evaluate the messages in the music so they have an opportunity to benefit from it as well!
