COMPANY PRESS CONTACT:Leslie Buttonow Korg USA [email protected] IMMEDIATE RELEASETrue Rockstars Dont HateMELVILLE, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES, July 16, 2014--- True Rockstars dont hate is a national anti-bullying program endorsed by Bose, Keith McMillen Instruments as well as Korg. Theyre an organization that focuses on the betterment of children and their self-esteem.

Todd Waites, is an arm amputee, cancer survivor and a Korg endorsee who has toured the world with his Korg Kronos, his favorite keyboard. He has been playing the keyboard since he was four and thought he would never play again when he lost his arm and shoulder to cancer at the age of 14.

But his sense of determination took over and since that time, hes gone on to coach David Bryan (keyboard player for Bon Jovi), has been the main character in an amazon best-selling motivational book published in 2012, and has been featured in numerous TV/Radio interviews as well as CDs and DVDs. Todd was also the keyboard player for ApologetiX, a well-known Christian band that is known for doing parody rock songs (theyve been touring the U.S. since 1992 and have played over 1,400 concerts).

These days, Todds main gig is visiting schools and reaching out to children. Each year, he speaks with thousands of students as well as the faculty, spreading the message that anyone and everyone can achieve greatness, regardless of any ailments. Hes a true inspiration who discusses topics such as anti-bullying, anti-hate, anti-suicide, anti-drugs, ways to better ones self esteem and more!

Commenting on his experiences with Korg, he notes, "One of my very first keyboards was a Korg Poly-6 which was way ahead of it's time even back then. At various times over the years I have owned Korg keyboard models DW-8000, DSS-1, Triton Pro X, Triton Extreme, and now the Kronos which is easily the coolest keyboard ever made.
