About Me

Jake. Retired from the US Navy in 2004. Been playing drums since I was 12, guitar since I was 21, and singing since I was born. Moving to Nashville this summer to follow that dream. Looking for friends, musicians, and songwriters to hook up with. "Just Bein' Me" was a song I wrote a few years ago about the things that were happening in my life, and the demo came out really good. (Thats not me singing) "Accidentally Fell In Love" is a song I co-wrote and recorded with my friend Jim (RIP) and features me on drums.
