About the stonesteels

Music. A universal language that speaks all tongues... That embodies the emotion of an individual towards a certain experience... I've found songwriting/music to be the best outlet of self-expression, where there are no bounderies nor rules of which you should live by. Writing words and thoughts that when put together, tells a story of which the narrator is the writer himself who shares to the world through melodies of passion. Once i write and finish these songs... these emotions might come to pass from me but the essence of that same emotion that was lived for the moment will forever be embedded in the heart of a song. Something that you can look back time and time again, we live, we love, we learn.

I write songs based on what inspires me. Whether it be my own personal experience or my friends', someone i see on the street, that ringing, catchy hook on my head... etc... basically anything that drives me to express... it's also helped me to stray away from idleness... anyway, hope u guys can appreciate what i have to share...

"One good thing in music, when it hits... you feel no pain." - Bob Marley
