Started out playing guitar in High School. Dabbled in other instruments since then, but guitar has been my one true love.
I'm a huge Wilco fan, I've been in the Wilco Ensemble at the Old Town School for more sessions than I care to remember.

I played bass with the Wonderful Flying Machines (December 07 - July 09). Wonderful experience, got to play a lot of cool venues with two excellent musicians, and meet a lot of great people in the Chicago music scene.

Now, I'm really focusing on song writing/lead guitar. Hear audio samples or reach me at http://www.myspace.com/filipransom
