I've been a rock musician that has done the band thing on and off for over 20 years(I started young). Primarily a singer, I also play guitar. Growing up and learning to play, I was a child of 80's metal. After that, I became a big fan of King's X, Lenny Kravitz, Sevendust, Miles Davis, and way too many to list. More recently I've discovered Contemporary Christian music, which has changed a lot since I first heard it in the early 80's. Listening to this music sparked an inspiration to write again.
