I'm a 24 year old singer/songwriter who has been writing music since I was young. When I was 18 years old I worked with the great Nils Lofgren of
Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band. He produced some of my earlier stuff. Through him I got to
meet Ringo Starr. About 2 years ago I was in the
band Brickfoot; during which time I've been up and down the east coast as well as shows out west
and a tour with the Department of Defense which
took us to Greenland to play for the troops and to play the first light festival at Thule air base. I am not however pro military or especially
interested in war, but it was a great experience and a beautiful
country .
