About Me

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, the city of "Angels". Unlike the majority of people living here who have either moved to pursue their dreams in the entertainment industry or crossed the state line to find a better life, I've seen a lot, and enough to make me love and hate this place at the same exact time. My biggest influence is Charles Bukowski, because he embraced both the glamor and the filth of this city and turned it into art. Like his poetry, my songs do the same. My songs are my tangible memories, thoughts, nightmares and dreams inspired not only by my life, but by the life of this city and everyone in it. Take a listen, and share some of it with me.

the old man

Every day I walk by a lost soul....someone who is barefoot with filth and decay just reeking off of them. Talking to themselves, living some kind of detached but justified life, walking up and down th...
