About Me

I have always loved music, I just happen to now be obsessed with it. My parents had a piano and an acoustic guitar while I was growing up, so I was always around music. I took piano lessons a few times, but I didn't like the teacher and took little from it. Her husband happened to be my music teacher in high school, and I didn't really get along with him much either.I played percussion for 4 years in high school, and was in several award winning Concert Bands / Wind Ensembles. I started playing Bass so that I could start a band with my friends, but I gradually started to play guitar instead.I recently returned to playing drums (for the first time in years) for my friend's band "Boxhands", and I've been enjoying that quite a bit. Check us out at -www.myspace.com/boxhandsIn addition to that, I recently began working on a 4 song LarSiN EP with my friend filling in on drums. The first attempts sound promising, so look forward to hearing a more beefed up LarSiN than you're used to.
