About Me


I was born into a completely non-musically inclined home. I don't know why I decided to pick up piano, but I did. I took lessons for six years, starting in kindergarten, but never learned how to read music. After six years, I figured I'd just learn the rest by ear.
When I was 11, I got my first guitar. Again, I have no idea how the idea of playing guitar permeated my brain, as I'd never even touched one before, but there you have it. I fell in love. I taught myself how to play, and I haven't been able to set the damn instrument down since.
I've been writing my own music since the end of 2004, and I'm hoping to improve some over time. Hopefully I'll be able to get everything professionally recorded sometime soon and be able to put out a full-length, considering that I've been recording everything in my basement so far.
I've had the distinct honor of performing with the Ditty Bops and the Dresden Dolls, as well as opening for Flogging Molly.
I hope you fine folks enjoy! Feel free to give me feedback of any kind.
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
