I am here for Friends

About Me

Up until my last few years of high school I was a bit of a drifter, not really knowing what I wanted out of life. Then one morning I decided to challenge myself by learning to play an instrument (the bass was always my first choice). What I wasn't expecting was that it would change my life so much. Music is the most fulfilling experience Ive ever had the fortune of coming across. I'm currently in a band called Sargent Sapphire playing gigs round Sydney. Im also at the University of New South Wales doing a Bachelor of Arts Degree. The workload's pretty substancial but Im finally able to concentrate solely on the subjects I most enjoy which is all that matters I guess.
