The first song you hear, "Five Miles" was written by me and Aaron Mertes. Click on the lyrics link for more info.
I started off playing bass violin in Middle School. I'd get to school early and leave late
so that I could practice. In High School I joined the Jazz band and taught myself how to
play on the School's old Fender P bass.
I've been in and out of bands in Milwaukee and the surrounding areas. I taught Bass Guitar
for a little over a year at the White House of
Music in Waukesha, WI.

Things have been OK. I took over the voice part of CTG too. We are mid process integrating with the CDW network. Otherwise, things are good. How are things for you?
