About Me


I live in a beautiful world. A world where regardless of who people are, where they come from or what they do, they will always turn to music. After all, music is probably the only way we reach out to each other. Mix tapes, sitting alone during October nights, listening to your favourite "Mr.Tambourine man", and trying to find for answers or relate to something... they're all examples of the similarity we have within us. That inspires me a great deal to write. It forces me to get off my weary bed sometimes and just make some music.
I dont want to be a healer. I just want to write for you. It's all I can offer to a world gone who constantly believe they're alone.
Keep listening to the radio.
If I trusted my feelings, and cried like a fool,
For all that I'm feeling, that you're going through,
Your fear of loss and your fear of the stand,
That you find you have to make, when they let go of your hand...
Would you turn your gaze towards me, and ask me for my prayers?
As though I've been having a Divine Affair,
And I'll Sing for you darling, like I always do - it's just...
In order to start breathing, you have to stop
Living submersed.

And all the undiscovered/underground talents that took the time and patience to collaborate with me.
I wanted each of their individual essence to mix in everyone of my songs as a trademark.
These are the people I adore, because they're clueless as to how much they can actually touch hearts and change the world. And...
