i've been playing guitar since 1989, and bass since about 1998.
what you're listening to is me. the songs and ideas here are expressions and explorations of myself. i play what i feel, record it sometimes, and upload it here.
good enough for you michael?
consider this music a conversation in my own unique language. if you are here looking for collaborator, please understand that we might find a common one.

'Cause I'm the winner, no, I'm not the loser
To be an M.C. is what I choose 'a
Ladies love me, girls adore me
I mean even the ones who never saw me
Like the way that I rhyme at a show
The reason why, man, I don't know
So let's go, 'cause
It takes two to make a thing go right
It takes two to make it outta sight
Hit it!
