The Falling Knife, Fall 2008

About Me

i play music, i have done so in a band called the read letter and another called the drovers, ( also play in ogle’s band thanatos, ssshhh). i decided it was time to go solo and sing my own songs. i kind of like the solo thing, much easier to tour and practice.
