I want to reach my hand into the dark and feel what reaches back

About Me

I am the host of "Dark Entries" on WUSC 90.5fm here in Columbia, SC. Join me Monday nights 10pm-12am (eastern) as we explore the latest in Goth, Darkwave, Death Rock and all things creepy and fantastic... Give it a click and listen to WUSC streaming live!

In addition to the radio show, I'm involved in booking and promoting like minded bands and performers (fire-breathers, artists, freaks, geeks, explorers in the eccentric and arcane) for club shows here in town. If you're interested in playing with us or if you'd like to book me for your gigs (I'm ALWAYS up for a gig), drop me a line!
