About Me

Grew up in Haw River NC, schooled at Appalachian State for the formal piece of paper, then I found out how little I know.

Currently in Brooklyn, artist, wannabe other things, music coming back into focus... well as seen through a whisky bottle darkly.

Here's a version of one of my favorite songs penned by Johnny Cash, "Get Rhythm". Performed by Martin Del Ray, who I knew not of until recently. Great vocals, great band, and a good video.... Enjoy. Did I mention Cash is in the video too...?
