I'M A MUSICIAN, first and foremost and above all else. I've been playing music since I was a kid, violin, cello, drums, guitar, percussion, and bass. Since 2001 I've made myself known around the Washington DC area as a bass player with with bands such as The Issue, April Park Theory, Rotoscope, and DC punk legends The Little White Pills (featuring current and former members of The Murder Junkies, Spirit Caravan, Unorthodox, and The Wayward Drifters).In August 2004 I joined Spectre and moved to Los Angeles with them as their bassplayer where we recorded an album with Shaun Lopez (The Revolution Smile, Deftones, Will Haven).Currently, I am no longer with Spectre, and I am now enjoying playing in The Knockarounds and proudly encourage all of you to check us out at www.theknockarounds.comThe songs I've posted on this page are a sampling of some of the bands I've played with over the years. I'm proud of all of them and I encourage you enjoy them and check them out.As I have time, and this idiotic site allows, I'll be adding more songs.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
