About Me

10 yrs ago I picked up a guitar and taught myself how to play, because you can't take a piano to the beach. For the last 5-6 years I've been writing songs, most of which I haven't really liked. More importantly I've been trying to figure out what my style is, and what I sound like. After a few failed attempts at trying to put a band together, I decided to just start on my own acoustic project. I finally have my own recording setup at home, so I'm getting started on putting something together. I'll keep a few older up just so there's something to listen to, until I have some new stuff done.

to you, whoever you are

A burning flame consumes the words I do not recognize, I see your name, but I do not know who you are. I imagine your face and what it would look like next to mine. Waiting on the hands of this clock,...
