He is not a professional songwriter, but he has put together an album of 14 original songs which he is launching on National Day.

Mr Kevin Shepherdson, 43, a motivational speaker and life coach, said: “Launching my album on National Day is significant because I want to to remind Singaporeans that no matter how busy or ambitious we are, our country and home will always be there for us."

He spent close to $8,000 to produce 1,000 copies of the CD.

The proceeds of his album will go to the Family Life Society, a registered non-profit charity and a member of the National Council of Social Services which promotes family and marriage.
