Inward
Inward is a one man project. All instruments are played by myself, Daniel. I am a guitar player. I also sing and play bass. I program the drums as well.
The main purpose of this project is to spread the message of Jesus Christ through heavy metal music.
Ive been playing Metal for about 20 years. Guitars, bass, drums and vocals.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Inward was created out of the ashes of a Motorhead tribute band I was in. It is also the culmination of 30+ years of not really listening to God. I finally started to listen to Him and rededicated my life to Him.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Im from Virginia. Ive played in many bands but for right now I am content with doing my own recordings.
