About Me

Layout By: EditingMySpace.com
The story begins long long ago in a far away place called Branchville, New Jersey in the summer of 2002. I picked up my first guitar and things have never been the same since. With this project, I wanted to surround myself with the best musicians for jamming and getting my own work through. On bass from Pegasus Jetpack as well as his own solo work, Jon Irizarry provides perfect grooves. On drums and other crap you can hit and shake, the percussion master of all styles Matt Carlson provides a solid foundation for my songs and numerous jamming possiblities. Last but certainly not least, on piano, drums, and most awesomely sax, Brian Cornish adds tone, knowledge and depth to each of our supreme sessions. I would hope you could check out some of the music or maybe come out and see a show
Thanks, Brian St. John
