About Me

Howdy, Folks!So, somehow you landed on my page. Hopefully, you're just skimmig through myspace and thought you'd give me a hear...which is excellent. Thank you for coming. Hopefully, my music will create some kind of emotion from you...That's all I really want from my listeners. I'm not really into music to make money or to be on MTV. I just like music. I'm just doing it for self satisfaction, self-actualization and hopefully make somebody like my music along the way.I've been playing since the age of seventeen...well, actually i've been playing since thirteen...however, I took lessons for a summer in 8th grade and my classic/spanish teacher left, so I stopped playing till my friend inspired me to pick it back up my senior year of high school. I've been addicted ever since.I think it's fair to say, I'm not really that good at guitar. I don't really even consider my self a guitarist. I have LOTS to learn on guitar...probably plenty of things i should have already learned, but I tend to think of myself as an artists/songwriter instead. I love creating.I haven't really decided who I sound like because I don't really think I sound like any of my influences, however I've been told that I sound like the lead singer of New Amsterdams...but then again, WHO CARES? Please listen...decide for yourself.I just got some new recordings from a new friend, Kyle Cadena. I'm EXTREMELY happy with the recordings and I'm hoping they'll reach out to receive more of an audience. If you're looking for a good recording session in the Jersey/New York area...I highly suggest him.http://www.myspace.com/kylecadena»-(¯..v..¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯..v..¯)-«
