ABOUT

I have always played in at least one band, since I was 16. I moved to Charleston in 2011 from Athens, GA, and I hope to find more people here that are into having an active scene of original music. I have a great 9-5 M-F job in tech, not married, and no kids. So, playing music is something to which I hope to devote more of my time.
