About Me

Perhaps there are few things as beautiful as honest confessions of the heart. It is my opinion that good music contains honesty. Music that is honest to the feeling that inspired the peice and lyrics that reflect honest feelings. Whether those feelings are feelings of joy and peace or anger, frustation and sadness should have no conquense as long as the person is being honest. This is the type of music I hope to create. I feel that if I am honest as mentioned above, that my songs for those who are really listening will cause a emotional change, promote understanding and become something that is powerful, not only to me but to the listener as well. I have always had a love for music, and using it as a medium for art came somewhat natural to me. Like all art is a form of expression, I hope that you will find my expression as true to life. Such is the motive of our CD "A tell tale heart". It follows a pattern that has been the progression of most of my relationships. I hope that you can take our music and find something you can use to aide you in overcoming heartache, to make you laugh at some of the very human things we do, or best of all to create an idea or feeling inside you that helps you become more than you already are.-- START SHOPPING CART TO CD BABY --
