About Me

I was born and raised in Bastrop, Louisiana. A small town down south where the people are nice and the food is great. Unfortunately the options are very limited for musicians. After playing with a few dead end bands in louisiana I decided it was time for change. So I moved to LA to pursue a professional career. I currently play guitar and write music in my band highlines. Check it out.See u soon.
