About Me

I have been playing in a band and writing songs for the past 9 years. Currently, I have my own project to which this site is dedicated, and I am guitarist for a band named Far & Fading (myspace.com/farandfading). I have also taken up bass, and am playing in an experimental rock band named Gulls.With my solo project, I hope to capture some of the feelings and thoughts that dwell in the deepest parts of my heart and mind, so that others might experience a world view besides their own. I decided to go with more of a folk sound, because it's perfect for storytelling and accentuates lyrics. Also, you can expect a pretty interesting stage show as I get others involved and possibly incorporate some home-made gadgets.
