About Me


I'm Lorenzo, and I play guitar in Retrofire. I guess that makes me a musician of some sort. Other than playing guitar, I also enjoy playing drums and bass guitar. I listen to pretty much anything that pleases the ear, so I'm not restricted to one or two genres. Music is my main passion if you haven't noticed already, it's all I want to do with my life. I don't think I really have much of a life outside of music, so I'll either be the most exciting or boring person you've ever met.
