I believe that life is more than what we as people make it. Instead of getting caught up in this world, I'm realizing more and more that it's what happens after we leave here that's the most important. I try to focus on what's real and important....my relationship with The Most High. The Word truly opens your eyes if you just give it a chance. I don't like modern religion, I feel that it's very different from spiritual truth. I'm a work in progress, rough around the edges, and will never be perfect, but strive for rightousness and spiritual growth.............................About the music:
I remember being about 7 or 8 always listening to my Run DMC, Twisted Sister, and Fat Boys records. I loved all kinds of music (yes Michael Jackson and Rod Stewart, too). Anyway, i would annoy my parents on car rides, because i would always ask them to turn the radio up or change the station.... it was a consistent theme for my childhood. I started playing drums when i was 17, then guitar when I was 18. I went to Radford University right after high school, and took my acoustic w/ me.... between learning to play that and partying too much, i ended up "leaving" after 3 semesters. Over the next several years, I continued to write and record in my basement. I formed a band called THE SEED, (You can buy our self-titled album at cdbaby.com or digstation.com), with my friend and songwriting partner, Gabe Lewis. We did it full time for 3 years and learned a lot along the way. It was a pretty awesome adventure. Now I'm working on a solo album. It'll feature several different guest vocalists and mc's.....so keep your ears open for that later this year!

Hey thanks so much for the friend request :) I'm so glad you found my music - I hope you enjoy it and listen often. I'm planning on recording after the new year some new tunes, so you'll want to keep your eyes open :)
In fact - you should think about signing up for my email list because I'll probably be sending out announcements through that and you won't want to miss them ;) The form's on the left-hand side of my myspace - I'll be sending exclusive video messages too.
Just so you know, many of my tunes are available on iTunes! You should check them out, should you find yourself with a favorite song of mine ;)
I love getting to know my fans so leave me a comment and let me know how you're doing!! Do you have any special holiday plans? I'm hoping to get to somewhere warm in the new year ;D We'll see how that pans out!
Yo Brent Hoskinsasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
I'm just sitting around campus right now. I think I'm going to take a nap in the grass, then do some studying. No Geology class tonight and Sarah doesn't get off work til 8.

I'm proud to offer you "Heavy In The Beats Vol. 1 - A Different Drum", the first installment in my FREE mixtape series dedicated to giving drummers and percussionists exposure. "Volume 1" focuses on the avant garde side of the instrument, and features pieces from Billy Martin (of Medeski Martin & Wood), myself, Steve Honoshowsky, and others!
