Bio

I've been involved with making music ever since I learned to play drums at thirteen. In high school, I continued drumming with a band dubbed by my friends and I as Abington Court. I also played around with electronic dance music with some friends in a project we called Shnaus Mouse, but it wasn't until senior year at high school that I wrote my first song on acoustic guitar. Finding songwriting the most rewarding and appealing form of music, for me, I continued writing songs and eventually learned how to record songs using nothing but a computer. Now I'm in Boston and I'm a freshman at BU looking to play around the city. I'm influenced by the melodies and riffs of acoustic country music, John Prine being a prime example. My songwriting is mostly personal and usually describes the thoughts and feelings I'm having at the time I write the song. I feel that if a song isn't complete in its truth and sincerity, then it has defeated its own purpose of self-expression. I feel I am set apart from other bands in he same way I am set apart by any living person. No one's thoughts or ideas other than my own are used in creating my songs, therefore my music is basically a direct incarnation of myself, mentally and emotionally. Everything that distinguishes me from anyone else in the world is what distinguishes me from any other musician.
