i was born in portland oregon in 1982.
i am very excited that i missed most of the 80s but feel great remorse
for the loss of the 70s. my father has certainly been the bigest musical
influence in my life. dad sang to me as a child and taught me the
skill of playing many wonderfull instruments including the kazoo and
the spoons as well as several more well known yet equaly valid instruments
later in life.
ive played in lots of bands within all kinds of generes and once
recorded a rock'n cd in nashville with some friends from a previous
college experiment. things didnt work out for the long run with
that so i moved back home and have been doing alot of writing since
then.
i like to pull a little bit from all styles of music and bring
them together to try and make something that sounds fresh yet familiar.
my first instrument is percussion so the idea of a driving rhythem
tends to carry over into my guitar playing (aka im one of those
folks that beats the poo out of his guitar).
i try to always center my life around who God wants me to be. recently
ive been thinking that its only logical that i do the same with
my music. although i dont always write directly about the Trinity
i realize that that He encompasses all of life. my hope is that
my lyrics and music would offer thoughts on this life through a
more spiritual prospective.
