A.L.S.

Music is music...

About Me

A.L.S. is just like you. He is experiencing the rollercoaster of life that everyone rides once. His name was once Another Lost Soul... just like every person at one point feels. Lost. He now knows he can be a voice to those that feel they don't have one. He loves to engage with to those that feel connected to him. He loves being a part of people's lives. He hopes his art can be enjoyed by all walks of life and people of all tastes. He loves music. He loves Jesus. He is just a man. He is imperfect. He has a story. He wants to share it with you. And he wants to hear yours.
