Why this name?
Its my name...
Do you play live?
Yes. Many places. My hometown, L.A. and all over the United states and europe. I love performing my music.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Lots of ways. The power has gone back to the people in a lot of ways. The live performance is becoming more important. I appreciate that because there are a lot of "fake" singers out there. What you hear on my records is what you will hear live.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Any contract I sign in this day is going to be a lot better than one when the majors had more of a monopoly. If the deal is right, of course I may sign. The ball is in my court because I already produce my own music and can share it to the world through the internet immediately. Im happy! Any major record label would simply have to make me happier, which would involve both money and artist control... especially the latter.

Favorite spot?
Crotone, Italy ...beautiful small "country" town on the coast of southern Italy with a castle on the water. I performed there on tour with my former musical partner, Shifty Shellshock under a Warner Bros. deal. The fireworks after the show were better than Disneyland, and they shot straight above the castle on the ocean coast! What a beautiful town...
