About Me

Well first and foremost I am a singer. I haven..t always been though. I used to play the drums and did so for eight years. I played in various bands but none that really got anywhere. So I quit the drums and started playing the guitar which finally led to me singing backup in a cover band. One thing led to another and suddently I was the lead singer. I guess this was around 95 and since then I have been focusing more and more on singing.
My thoughts about my MySpace profile is that it gives me the chance to communicate directly with people all over the world. Both in regards to my work as a singer in Mercenary, which by the way is the best band in the world to be in, but also on a more general basis.
So please feel free to pop in and to ask me anything. I..ll try to answer as soon as I can. Meanwhile please check out some of our tunes right here:
