About Me

Hello, thanks for stopping by!

A little background:

I am what most people would call a singer/songwriter. I sit down with the acoustic guitar and make up songs about; life experiences, feelings of love and loss, and every once in a while the random song about a snake robbing a bank. Where I differ from most singer/songwriters is my approach to recording.
I fell in love with electronic music in the last place you'd expect -Atlanta, Georgia. When you think of "house music" or "dance music" you think of some European rave or maybe New York, L.A., or Miami. But, believe it or not Atlanta introduced me to this whole other world.

How the music comes to life:

As I previously stated, I start with the acoustic guitar and a piece of paper... but the fun begins when I add the biggest, heaviest, bob-your-head sound that I can possibly fit in between two speakers.

I create what I call "Acoustic Electro"

Week at the beach

After an awesome trip to the beach, I found myself itching to record (and no it wasn't from the sand chaffing). I listened to all kinds of music on the way to Charleston and on the way back, and...
