Bio

My interest in music started back when I was about twelve years old. My parents for my grammer school graduation bought me a used Ibanez electric guitar. That was about 1989. At that time Gun n Roses were the big thing so ofcourse they were my first inspiration. As I got older and started playing in different bands during high school I started to realize that writing music was something that I loved. It wasn't until 1994 that by accident I heard Garth Brooks The Dance. It was playing on a radio station that was not coming in clearly, actually it was interfereing with the station I was listening to at the time. I didn't know who I was listening to, but I was blown away. It was at that moment that I realized that where ever that writer was(emotionally) when he wrote that song, it was a place that I strived to be. I guess that is when I started reaching deep within myself to write songs.
We'll Become one started about two years when my wife and I started the painful search for a wedding song. We listened to hundreds of songs and couldn't agree on any of them. Finally my wife looked at me and said,"Write me a song". I thought she was joking at first but soon found out she was very serious.
The approach I tried to take to the song was simple and truthful. I didn't want any fancy words or phrases, I felt it just needed to be true.
Needless to say the outcome was better than I ever anticipated. With the help and guidence of Tony Christopher the whole recording and experimentation process was just a great experience. We did our studio sessions and before long the song was finished.
