About Me

I started learning guitar in the Summer of 02. I gave up really quickly, started really learning in the Summer of 03, and have been hooked ever since. I added harmonica to my repertoir in the summer of 2005, when I started writing. Recording and actually taking things seriously began in late 2005, when I bought some home recording equipment and really started to take my originals seriously. Since then, I've been working hard to get the 7 or 8 originals I have done in order to record a demo CD before heading off to college.

New Lyrics, Album Info

My bad. The blog didn't post when I tried to post it before. I do appologize for that. I've finished writing three songs and still have one in the process for Eye To Zion, the follow up to my self-tit...

Album Postponed

First off, I appologize for not posting this sooner. It's been a hectic time since I last posted - most notably, I am now living in Jerusalem. In any case, the album is being postponed. I listened thr...

Album Sale Update

The album is done! I believe that I will be selling it via iTunes for download, but fairly shortly I should be able to start selling hard coppies through the mail. My guess is it'll be about 10 dollar...

8/10/07 Recording Update

Today was mostly a catch-up day. I redid KIA and Johnny (Comes Marching Home) and both sound even better than before. KIA is about on-par with Oh My Brother in terms of how much I like it. I'll be upl...

8/9/2007 Recording Update

Today was a huge day for me as far as recording. It wasn't huge because I recorded a ton of songs; in fact, I went backwards in that regard. I got a new computer today. This one runs much more smoothe...

8/7/07 Recording update

Today was an amazing day. I woke up at 1pm, got dressed and got on a train to downtown Chicago. My dad and I were going to the AFL-CIO Democratic Candidates' Forum, where all of the Democratic hopeful...
