It's just me.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Been playing guitar for about 4 years. Been writing music for the past year or so. Once in a while Sol will sing for me since I can't really sing for my life. I'll stick to backing vocals.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Haven't played any notable gigs solo yet, just enjoying writing music. Played a great live gig with 'One Night Only' in March of 2006.
