musicians thrive in an atmosphere of studied chaos

About Me


i'm not afraid of your suffering ...
i'm not afraid of your joy
i'm not afraid of your hunger ... your desire
i'm not afraid of your rage ...
i'm not afraid of your love
i'm not afraid of your lies .... or your truths
.... or of the prisons you choose to live inside...
i see you
i feel you
i need you
i love you
