....But the reality didn't quite catch up with me until about 15. I was invited to play bass guitar for a Dead Kennedy's cover band. This is when I fell in love with the process of performing. The cover band never really panned out, but developed into one of the first black metal bands in America (well at least Orange County... but that's all hearsay... regardless). After about a year and a half of playing concerts from OC to LA, I began to broaden the horizons of my musical palette. Which eventually led to the bands demise, and the begining of a new path in my life.
I then packed up shop and moved to Los Angeles, where I met a friend that changed my life for good. He gave me my first acoustic guitar and simply said, "write me a song". And I did. And it was horrible... But that's not the point. He started a fire under me, that will never be extinguished. From that point on, I was a singer song-writer. We later went on to start a band called Living Will. Which was a progressive hard-rock band, in the realm of the Deftones, The Used, etc. We wrote some incredible material together. Played just about every venue in Hollywood, and recorded an EP that still gets me going in the morning. Needless to say, the band had differences, and went our separate musical ways. I then started working with a producer. We too had a good run at things. Together we shopped a major record label, and booked a show at the House of Blues Foundation Room, to the reception of roughly 200+ people. Our relationship was one of the most cherished, and educational experiences of my career thus far. Sadly our paths eventually parted ways. But I will always appreciate the time shared. So here I am. A singer/song-writer, residing in beautiful Silverlake, CA. I've been writing music for a little over 7 years. During which I worked with a number of very talented musicians and professionals, who have taught me countless life lessons, and accompanied me on countless journeys of love and loss. And I will always love and appreciate them for that. I have however began a new path in my career. I'm currently looking forward to recording my debut album, and I am in search of management, legal and label representation. My contact information can be made available upon request.
