Band Members: solo but with a full band on the records, a revolving cast of players because nobody cares as much as I do, and thats why I'm solo
Influences: Hugely influenced by 60's pop/rock, especially the Beatles. Also love the Stones, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Monkees, Everly Brothers, Tom Petty, Oasis, Weezer, Radiohead, Elliot Smith, Aerosmith, Elton John, Billy Joel, Cat Stevens, Jim Croce, Simon & Garfunkel, CCR, Zeppelin, Doors, STP, The Strokes, Dire Straits, Bob Seger, U2, The Kinks, Nirvana, a lot more. Not sure why I listed all of them, anything I hear is an influence. I try to be a sponge and soak up the best of what I hear, to help me become a better songwriter and musician...
Sounds Like: a bunch of stuff but its tough to put your finger on exactly what it sounds like, definitely traces of the Beatles but also a unique sound, I hope. Nobody spends more time trying to write songs that will get stuck in your head than I do, because those are my favorite kind of songs
