About Me


I'm Shawn. Most people know me as SnoMan or Sno. It's been my nickname for 15 years now, so I doubt it'll be going away anytime soon.
I'm the bassist for Voices of Anatole. I love performing and love playing bass.
I'm also very interested in all forms of art in all mediums.
I'm a learner. I want to hear what you think and I'll gladly share my point of view as well. I don't mind being wrong, I'm more interested in learning what is right.
I live my life and gain much of my joy from the intangibles. Reality, as most people allow it to be, bores me. I demand more out of this life and work my ass off to make amazing things happen. It's an uphill battle, but I fully intend to die trying, at the very least. Life is about the moments. Finding the beauty that is in front of our faces.
Relaxation. Inhebriation. Imagination. Debauchery.
I never ask a man what his business is, for it never interests me. What I ask him about are his thoughts and dreams.
Comfort is the enemy of inspiration.
