My foundation lies within my acoustic guitar. I play with really quick meladic drive when my acoustic sits in my hands. It becomes a part of me and I go along for the ride. With that layer paved, I add on the bass and electronic equipment to create a full sound that derives solely from my soul. I have set a goal to be able to channel my pure emotions into notes and I feel as though I'm becoming more and more capable of that. I want people at my shows to leave with a smile on their face and for that feeling to resonate so soundly that they'll remember that memory forever.
I am a one-man band that creates music for the soul. In a live setting, I loop all the instruments, which range from Acoustic & Electric Guitar, Bass and an array of electronic equipment, to create a full sound that I have designed. I’ve been touring for a year and a half and have already been given some big shows to place under my belt. I have opened for bands such as Keller Williams, Jazz Mandolin Project, The Big Wu, Eoto, The Itals, and Groovatron. I also played the Summercamp 2005 & 2006 festivals in Chillicothe. I’m am continuing to push on to see where my path will take me. Whether it blows up or crumbles, I’m going to enjoy every breath of it.
Hey dude it was great meeting you too. I really like your tunes. You are super talented. And I hope that we can cross paths again soon too. I will let you know the next time we're coming to Fort Collins. Until then keep livin the dream.
GREAT SHOW ON SATURDAY! I had a blast grooving like always man.It was great seeing everyone around getting into it too.My B for leaving half way through but spent all the damn day in the sun drinking and turns out that tires out the body. Can't wait to catch another show man keep me updated.
Hey Alan! We are playing our 1st show as a full band this Friday (the 27th) at Out of Bounds Saloon in Loveland! We are opening for Lindsey O'Brien starting at 9:30pm! If you can make it we would love your support!
We should get together and jam soon... I'd like to jam with you and Skyler for fun. I've been digging on trio size jams lately, it makes it really easy to follow each other down whatever path sounds pleasing!
I just re-fell in love with you and your music! I love the New Acoustic song it is so great I have it on repeat it is the most calming and lovely song maybe EVER :) keep up the great work!
