About Me

this is a project created in my room and my head, feel free to contact me if you're a local performer who would like to collaborate or need an act for a show.Aside from music I study philosophy and Karate. Martial arts has helped me in many aspects of life, not just for self defense but its has also influenced my outlook and philosophy. Part of my song writing is an attempt to explain events and works of art from a philosophical perspective. I get a lot of inspiration from movies as well as television, thus some of my lyrics speak specifically to how these pieces of art have affected me. Some people think music is about dancing or spreading joy, I think that's a really shallow viewpoint. Music is art, and art isn't about happiness its about sending a message. That message:
We are all frail vessels.
