Me and my friend Ben wrote this song in about ten minutes. It shows, doesn't it?
I am Colin Bates. I like to play guitar and sing stuff. Check me out.Band/artist history
Well, I don't want to bore you with the story of my life, but basically I have played french horn and trumpet for what seems like forever, and I started playoing guitar about two years ago, and picked up bass somewhere along the way. And I didn't realize that I could sing until my friend Ben heard me and tpold me. I still don't think I am a very good singer, and that's what I have been working on alot.Have you performed in front of an audience?I am getting ready to start playing live alot, and I still have a lot of work to do.
