Artist picture
Art chasing sound.
The band is me. I have been a musician since age 7 (i'm 44 now), and that's pretty much all I did. By age 32 I was working in an average of 6 bands at a time and still practicing 36 hours a week. That's when I got nerve damage in both my arms and couldn't use them for 5 years...not for eating, lifting, playing...anything. 2 surgeries and 3 more years recoup, and I am back in short bursts. I write and track everything in 1 take as I can't play for long. Guitar is my main instrument (studied it the most), but have been playing drums and bass since age 10, and have actually worked the most as a drummer. I can't really use my left arm much so i drum with my fingers. It gives it a unique sound. (Don't worry, it's not wimpy... I can still break sticks!)

Story behind the song
Straight from Kandy's heart.
Lyrics
When I'm sure I'm all alone in the silence is my friend, I let my mind go to a place my heart has never been, I can only stay for a minute or I'll surely start to fall into what if and how come, and why am wondering at all. It's not that I'm angry, the opposite is true, but I've been saving up all of my questions for you. Sometimes I'm swept away by childhood fantasy, of who you are and who I think that I should be, but I tell myself that it's all right to wonder now and then, because I've never doubted the love that I've been given. It's not that I'm hurting because you let me go, I've been getting on just fine but I think that she should know, it's not that I'm angry, the opposite is true, but I've been saving up all of my questions for you. Do I have your eyes and your smile, would you understand? Did it tear at your heart to say goodbye? Do I have your laugh and your style, would you understand? Do you love to dance in the rain? Most days I forget that you exist. Because life is full of the ones I know, not the ones I missed, but I've always been a dreamer and curiosity is king, in this disconnected world of mine that blues still find me. If I could I would tell you just one thing, that I'd like to see you someday in heaven, and I would hope you would know just what I mean and that I'd see you someday in heaven, in heaven.
