During my humble beginnings at Drake High School, I created a lot of music in my Music Tech class, as well as a lot with various bands. Here is a taste...
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Well... First there was White Hill, then Drake, then SGO, then randomness.........
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play... sometimes... Whenever I am offered to. Schools, plays, other random places with other bands. The Oasis Teen Center was fun. Exposure in the city was fun even though it kinda sucked.
Your musical influences
Less Than Jake, Gold Finger, Reel Big Fish are big ones right now. Ethnic music is also becoming an influence.
What equipment do you use?
I got my Yamaha Pro Tenor Sax, Dell Dimension, Apple G5, M-BOX, Pro-tools, Reason, and good elo Cakewalk.
Anything else?
pie.
