What is music to you? What does it give you?

Question 1: Everything. Question 2: Everything.

What is your music dream?

To do this full time

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Ban crappy radio music

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Into the Lungs of Hell, Megadeth

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

The Black Dahlia Murder, Allegaeon, Obscura, Pantera, Nile, Within the Ruins, Ministry, Slayer, Alex Skolnick, Marty Friedman, Muhammed Suicmez

What inspires you to make music?

Dave and Rosalie's art/stories, personal experiences, other music

What is the message you want to send with your music?

"Hey. Hey you. Go find a mosh pit and don't come out til you've cracked a rib. I don't care if it's yours or not but you owe me a rib."

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Adrenaline rush

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Well, my reality as a musician is pretty sheltered. I'm pretty secluded by my geography and prevalence of country music and 60 year old classic rock in my area, so it's hard to say. This isn't exactly what the question is asking, but what can and will be improved by my reality as a musician is getting the hell out of here and finding people to play my metal with me!

What do you think of Drooble?

Pretty sweet so far.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Showing somebody the finished product of my music so they can try out, and getting the comment, "yeah sounds good but if I play with you I'm going to rewrite it because I'm an artist too." To this I say, release your own album then. I did.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

There isn't much of one where I live, but I support Metal Night when it comes around.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

I would love to know, myself. Fill me in! Please! Lol

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Best way I can do that is to link you to my friend Travis Weidow's youtube show, Snake Den Entertainment, for local metal news: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBkrnVwmvLmpkJLtDzx6wjw
