About Me

I grew up listening to my Dad playing blues on an acoustic, picked up the guitar myself when I was 'bout 16, albeit playing angry music. Got hooked on my acoustic somewhere along the way, but didn't wanna just strum it, so I started playing beats on it. I'm stepping up the pace now, gotsta chase your dreams right?
