I studied Piano for about a decade in my early years, and though I don't have the chops of a professional pianist, I write music with a keyboard, and am perfectly capable of playing most things with enough time to prepare. I've been singing all my life, chorus from elementary through all of the college that I've had, with professional vocal coaching in college for about 4 years. I'm 6'7 or so, and about 210, so pretty skinny for my height, longish brown hair, yada yada...

Influences
Probably my first main influence was Billy Joel, discovered his greatest hits album in my father's music, and listened nonstop for way too long, haha. I then branched out and became a lover of classic 70s and 80s Rock, especially Journey, Bon Jovi, Boston, Aerosmith, and of course some older rock, the Beatles particularly. I admire well thought-out lyrics over catchy rhythm, though having the latter is a plus.
EQUIPMENT
Very little at the present, I'm just starting with a cheap, small keyboard and a good computer, but I will be collecting equipment as I find a way to finance it.
