Why this name?
It's my name! I wish there was a better story behind it, but that's pretty much it.
Do you play live?
I love playing live. It's what I live for.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Overall the internet and mp3's together have made unsigned artists more accessable to the general public. It's wonderful because we are no longer forced to listen to what some corporate suits tell us is "good music" - instead of being stuck with what's on the radio we now have the option to hop online and actually find something WORTH listening to.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
That would depend entirely upon the fine print!
Your influences?
I'm influenced by everything. From the background music in the elevator to the rhythm of the train. I'm influenced by life, and the lives of people around me. Every song I've ever heard has influenced the music I write- how could it not?
Equipment used:
I play on a Dean acoustic guitar, and write on my beautiful Baldwin Acrosonic upright.
