About Me

I've been making music most of my life. Self-taught at guitar. Singing along to Beatles and Beach Boys records since I was 3.

From a previous promotional flyer:

"I hesitate to place myself in a specific genre. That's really only a way to begin limiting yourself. I play music. Sometimes it's pretty, sometimes it's not. I pick up instruments (even if I don't know how to play them), and I make them do what I want them to do. I have had a lot of musical training, but sometimes I don't even have a clue what I'm playing. Music just happens sometimes."

Let's battle some machines, mkay?

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
