A couple years ago, I was chilling on a beach in southern California with insufficient amounts of sunscreen. Needless to say, wearing shirts was not the most comfortable thing after that.

i've never really had any live shows, except playing the guitar and singing alongside my brother and sister at church once. it was very enjoyable.

i'm currently signed to Lunch in the Park Productions, and it's pretty awesome. we may not be a "major" label, but it's lots of fun.

the first band i was in, Denny Coleman, kind of didn't really go anywhere at first, and then i was in another band called Featuring the Audience, but that ended, and i started my own band.

i'm also in the band Rebel the Fox

Elliott Smith, The Rocket Summer, and Sufjan Stevens may very well be my biggest influences. also Frightened Rabbit and Bright Eyes.

my dad's acoustic guitar, our low-quality keyboard, maybe a harmonica, maybe a dulcimer.
