My Story

   My interest in music before I hit the age of 10 consisted of dressing up as “Sporty Spice” and acting it up with my girl friends during recess break at school. I discovered my first true love of music when I was in 4th grade - "The Beatles". It was my goal to own every single one of their albums and know the words to every single tune. One might have said that I was outdated, but I discovered that The Beatles were and remain timeless When I entered high school, I became interested in classic rock, progressive rock, blues, acoustic, pop, and from then on, I enjoyed almost any kind of music. My influences are difficult to pinpoint, yet they all blend together to form an original style and sound.
    My parents signed me up for piano lessons when I was 10, also, observing that I was expressing a growing curiosity in music. For 5 years I was classically trained, playing everything from Chopin to Debussy. I developed an acute ear during this time, and this ability has helped me greatly along the way. When I was 14-years-old, I picked up the guitar. Playing air guitar in my basement to “Band on the Run” was pretty awesome, but I knew then that it was just a beginning. So I dusted off my mom’s old acoustic from the attic, bought myself a chord book, and attempted to learn every Beatles song in the catalogue. I took about five or so guitar lessons and a quickie on music theory. Arthur (my instructor) and I jammed our way through the 30 minute time frames. About two months after starting guitar, I wrote my first song complete with chords and lyrics. It was far from incredible, but it was the start of one of my greatest passions in life: songwriting.
    So this is what brings me here today. My love and passion for music is, and hopefully will be, forever present and evolving. The great thing about music is that it never stays the same... Variety really is the spice of life!

That’s what I say anyway.
