The Bent Strings
The Bent Strings are:

Just a rough mix of songs I wrote and recorded as a hobby. Patience and Persistence are NOT to be under rated. Actually I love the songwriting process, it's recording that I'm not too fond of, but there are usually surprises along the way.
Anyone wishing to do a cover, remix, or whatever is welcome and encouraged, just send me an email.
