About Me

I'm from Chillicothe, Ohio. All my life I've written poetry and all my life I've sung. Over the past couple of years, I've begun to write some music as well. So...now I want to record. I would have recorded on May 23, but the person who was going to play keyboards got a "block" and informed me he couldn't do it. So now I'm looking for someone who'll play keyboards for little or no money, just for the satisfaction of it! (And, of course, some cash if I do make it big!) I've got sheet music, chords, and a rough recording of two of my songs. I really have a lot of influences but I think overall the stuff I've written holds up pretty well. Anything else you wanna know, send me a message!
