Band Members: Matt Baxley. It's just me. I do all the writing, playing, production, mixing, mastering, and everything else. However, I love to collaborate and jam with other musicians, writers, and producers. I collaborate frequently with my friend Dan Banks, whose site is at www.myspace.com/danbanksmusic .
One day, I hope to assemble a band to take my music to stages everywhere. We'll see what happens!
