About Me

While spending my entire adolescent life around music, I consider myself very experienced in the field for my age. Being multi-instrumental, I can play bass guitar, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, synth/keys/piano, and sing as well. My passion is song and lyric writing as well as recording in the my own studio. I entered the local scene playing bass for On Tracy Lane, a very notable and prosperous band around the nation. With that, I helped co-form the band Esibus, combining many styles of rock, funk, and progressive music. On my spare time I write and record my own songs for my side project, Echoes Anonymous. In my last 3 years of being in local scene, I have played at many STL venues such as Riverport, The Pageant, Pop's, Cicero's, The Hi-pointe, Off Broadway, Creepy Crawl, and many other local dives and bars. I try very hard to keep my life busy with music. I am never satisfied with one genre, so I express every emotion of myself in many bands.
