(I don't need you to) Set Me Free

About Me

Born & raised in New Orleans, moved around a bit, then met ROB because of my sneaky but very sweet sister. Living in Ireland because Rob joined The Frames and for now this is home. But watch this space.. times changes things.. oh and while the band tours I sling merch. I've met some amazing people along the way, some will be life long friends. Thanks to the tech world around us I'm able to keep in touch with old friends, make new ones and the physical distance doesn't feel so big. when they're not touring i'm try to figure out what i can do for work once this dream lifestyle is over...
