Anyone whom puts their soul into their art is a friend of mine. When your passionate dedication leaves your heart to the most frigid and ravenous exposure I see a strength in what appears so easily as vulnerability. That's one of my favorite things. Oh and cute puppies too!!I'd like to meet other musicians and people who enjoy the beauty of this art. I want to make music and appreciate it with open-minded people, and those with opinions and criticism.
