About Me

IF I DON'T KNOW YOU...MESSAGE ME BEFORE YOU ADD ME. I love bands but don't take kindly to being mass added. i will automatically delete your request if it isn't personalized.
i'm canadian but i have many homes.
i've lived in dublin ireland, london england, and belfast northern ireland and i'm currently back in my hometown of toronto.
i'm short, loud, and i work in rock and roll.
music is--and has always been--my life.
i get bored very easily of my current location...i love travel more than many things.
i love my friends and family and my life in general.
i'm probably your definition of a free spirit. some boys can't handle that. i'm waiting for one who can.
support your local indie scene...that's where it all comes from! check out these amazing acts....
