About Me

Hey people. This is all very informal, I'm just testin out some new ideas. I studied music in college while singing a ton of jazz and classical. After college, I started a band by the name of Jonny 5. That's where I got my stage experience and got to play around with genres from rock to funk to hip hop. I spent this past year working on some of my solo stuff in Roatan, Honduras. There were a couple of amazing producer/performing musicians there who helped me create some of my latest stuff. Everything is VERY rough so far with only a take or two max in the studio, but I gotta let my friends hear my music sometime, right? I write all of my lyrics and melodies and produce many of my own songs. Although, the first few you will here are produced by Aaron Daniels and Brion James.

Break the Shell

I don't like this song right now for a few reasons. I couldn't come up with better lyrics and they start to sound a little 'heal the world' hokey. I will be changing those hokey parts. Also, I'm no...

Can You Handle It?

So I heard this beat in my head one day while walking in to town on Roatan. I liked the Pauliqua Morena song and though of a little variation to that. Then, I came up with the 'Can You Handle It', h...

Please Don't Say

THIS SONG IS VERY RAW.... What you are hearing are the ideas coming straight from my head in Aaron's room onto his computer.  They were never rerecorded or sung in a manner that was supposed to s...

Nothin But Love

'Nothin But Love' popped in my head this last Christmas driving in my car. I was thinking about the reggaetone music I heard in Roatan a few months before, and I wanted to write a song simil...

Who Wins

I wrote the song, "Who Wins" in Roatan about two months ago.  It was inspired by a jerk ass ex who turned out to be somewhat of a phychopath.  I wrote it with my friend, Aaron, the day after...
