I write songs. lots of them. Unfortunately I'm too technologically inept, and not rich enough to have recordings of all of them. I don't follow genres, I simply write what comes to mind. They're influenced by everything. Lately, I've been on a country/alt/ kick. I guess it's because they're so lyrically driven. I also have a space rock side. Dynamics and melody are everything. Oh yeah, I dig blues too, but who doesn't. I play covers to make a living. It sucks, but until you've made it, you gotta do it, and it still beats crossing to the dark side of the corporate world. I just moved to Charleston SC, because I became too complacent in Raleigh, NC. Music turned into a job. That takes the joy from it. Also not cool. I'm definitely the new kid in town. Kind of exciting, kind of scary. There's a lot of cobblestone, and gas lanterns, and old haunted buildings. Very rustic, very inspiring. I live with my girlfriend, and my dog. They keep me sane, though I probably have the opposite effect on them, with all of the late night strumming. At night is when I work best. That's when the world stops, and allows me to pick it apart. I'm a critic/hater. It makes me angry when people become successful by over-promoting themselves, and relying on image. Don't get me wrong, both are important, but you must have the goods musically.period. Unfortanately, this is the superficial world we live in, and it's everywhere in music as well. It makes me sad sometimes, but there are still good souls too. You just have to look a little harder. I'm not going to write in the third person to sound like I'm not tooting my own horn like so many other myspace aficianados. You should be the judge, but not from just the recordings alone (simply because I haven't quite captured a song the way I truly envisioned it from the beginning). Come see a live show before you make your final decision. And if you ask for an original I'll pick you a daffodil.
