About Me

Here is a description of what i do: I have a foot-operated recording device that enables me to record layer upon layer of sound. I have 5 guitars, a drum set, turntables, keyboards, and a tupperware box full of junk that I use to create said layers of sound. When all goes well, I can emulate a full band playing a song. When all goes not-so-well, I can emulate a poorly funded middle school concert band warming up before a christmas pageant.
