ABOUT

Former 1st violinist in high school who learned the rest of the instruments(cello, viola, stand up bass) before going to his first punk show at 15. Started a ska punk band immediately after, then joined various hardcore/ metal groups as rhythm before starting an acoustic duo and then later hip/hop. Currently messing around with my interpretation of doom blues/alt. country but trying to write with a pop sensibility but punk attitude. Stopped for abit and after getting a drum set during the pandemic and consolidating gear after moving from Humboldt over here want to give it a go again. Always like a genre challenge and been able to write well with others and only gotten better with break and perspective. Guitarist/ songwriter with multiple original sets written of various genres and growing. I write music for the person or group Im with, Idk what else to say. Trying to get active on old accounts like be/ for weekly messaging versus this..I took a leap of faith, can you?
