Just my name. I like it. Welsh....from Wales.

Not at the moment.

Who cares. If you make it, you make it. There are 5 million bands on MySpace and I haven't seen a huge increase in signings...

Sure. Unless you have to be something stupid, like a Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, or something stupid

I started out learning to play piano around age 7 or so, but I didn't like it (at the time). I wanted to play outside and whatever, shoot guns, you know GUY stuff. When I got into middle school, I picked up playing trumpet after hearing Aaron Copeland's "Fanfare for the Common Man", I learned that I was playing the wrong instrument; what I wanted to play was the French Horn, so I switched and never looked back. I played through College (I graduated from VMI in 2005), and unfortunately had to stop playing after that, since I didn't own a french horn. I picked up guitar in high school and drums a few years later and piano again only recently. I have enjoyed composing, however, I am unable to do it full time. My dream would be to compose music for video games.

I would say closest to James Horner, then Thomas Newman, followed by Hans Zimmer and Klaus Badelt. I still love Danny Elfman, James Newton Howard, Howard Shore, John Williams, and the like, but just don't emulate them that much. I love hard rock, from Tool to Metallica, Enya, Classical, Jazz (Marsalis, Armstrong, etc.), R&B, instrumental ambient, and ethnic. I write in all genres.
