Songwriter 路 Author 路 Producer 路 North Country, New York

Songs, guides and stories with a light on.

I'm Wayne Elliott. I write and produce music of faith and hope, publish practical money and AI guides under my Avoraway brand, teach AI in plain language on YouTube, and run my own recording studio. This is the home for all of it, and for whatever I build next.

Music 路 WayneAwards303

Power Even In His Whisper

My debut album: songs about faith, hope, honesty and love, plus two originals for the Christmas season.

I do about 60% of the work on every song myself. I write the lyrics, sing and hum the melodies in my own voice, record on my own studio equipment, and tweak each track until it feels as human as possible. AI music tools help me bring the full band to life for the rest.

Production assistance: Claude (Anthropic) and Suno.

About

Teacher first, maker always

I spent ten years in a middle school as an in-school suspension teacher and Obedience Coordinator, helping young people get back on track. That work taught me patience, structure and how to explain things simply, and it runs through everything I make now.

Today I write, record and publish from the North Country of New York. I've spent years in content writing and development, I keep learning new tools, and I like making things that help people feel better or do better.
