ABOUT
I am a down to earth, pretty quiet 25 year old. Music is what I eat, sleep and breath. I received my 1st acoustic guitar for my 14th birthday. I had formal lessons a handful of times but found that I discovered so much more without the constraints of an instructor, lesson plan & designated practice schedule. I was not interested in playing nursery rhymes over and over until I could move on to the next children's song. I wanted the freedom to "explore" the instrument from all angles and "experience" for myself the limits that it could be pushed to reach. I am self taught but have tinkered with theory enough to have a workable foundation. I have played nearly every day since the day I received my first guitar for an hour or so minimum with countless days logging 7, 8, or more hours in a single stretch. I can easily convert what I play on my guitar to a basic version played on a piano or keyboard. I have a great ear and can pick out harmonies quickly. I have good vocal tone, quality and range. My vocal style ranges from Nirvana & Led Zeppelin to Radiohead.
