About Me

I have had many jobs and adventures in my life, but nothing beats living a life making music. I only wish that I had studied music in my high school and college days. Despite my lack of formal training with music; I have managed to grasp the basic language of it, and developed the ability to play guitar, electric bass and am now learning how to play piano. I find singing to be the most challenging aspect of making music however. But when all is said and done, I primarily think of myself as a songwriter. I am also seriously involved in learning how to work with my home recording equipment. It's definitely a learning curve; but it's all worth it when I get a good track down, and make the song sound cool enough to want to listen to it.
