Still Alive Still Alive
A melancholy break up song. Finding the right words the character in the song copes with it and moves on.

The road to excess is the pathway to wisdom, for we shall never know what is enough until we have had more than enough. - William James

Artistically, I am primarily a guitarist and songwriter. I have written about 16 original songs having recorded 12 of them. One of the songs I have in my repertoire was cowritten with a songwriter based in Delaware, Brian Bunnel. We collaborated through a site called Quarterlife.com. He provided the lyrics while I supplied the music. I believe that the more exposure I get the more chances I have for my music to make it. And in the off chance it doesn't happen, I can always fall back on songwriting and be a ghostwriter for other musicians who have the power to break through in the music industry. However, since I believe that my mind is a powerfully positive tool I believe in myself as others do believe in me that I can make it.
Band/artist history
Franchi$e Music, entertaining you since 2002. My first song was written in San Diego. Although I had forgotten the melody and chord progression I found the lyrics scrawled on a notebook when I moved back to Los Angeles. I wrote new chords and a different melody and it sounds even better than it would have been. Since then I have been writing off and on or whenever inspiration hits.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yes. All my shows I have done so far have been acoustic sets. My first show was in Hollywood at a little spot called The Pig N Whistle. I have also played a few times at the Friar Tucks Bar in Pomona, a sushi/sportsbar restaurant in City of Industry, and Iguana's Bar and Grill in Pico Rivera. My first show at that iconic restaurant was a pretty memorable moment. My true friends showed up and supported and I felt a bit special being in a room that entertained many high profile actors/actresses and musicians in its heyday.
Your musical influences
Classic rock, powerpop, alternative, grunge, melodic punk, acoustic folk, some hip hop/rap for dancing :)
Pink Floyd,Led Zeppelin,the Beatles,Jack Johnson,Crosby Stills and Nash,Elliot Smith,Jim Croce and The Doors are just a few influences and musical favorites that rattle my brain and summon serenity.
What equipment do you use?
Ovation acoustic/electric, Celebrity model

I'm my biggest fan and harshest critic.
