About Me

CHECK OUT DRAGNA!!!!!!!!! That's my BAND. New album coming out soon... Now, about me: what is it you want to know? Live to skateboard, but am getting too old to pull it off anymore! If you know of any local ramps let me know...I have a degree in Architecture (of which I am a book whore). My day job is running my own business as a carpenter/ general contractor and designer.www.officeofurbanrenewal.comI play Guitar and Harmonica for Dragna, I ve been playing guitar for about 18 years, off and on. Picked up harmonica and lap steel a few years ago, and Im still working on my singing. most of the songs posted are all me. I can play a little drums, and try to write songs regularly. I will be putting more stuff up soon, so keep your ears peeled.I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
