Music is a way of expressing my current and past emotions. It’s an outlet to help deal with the struggles, pain, heartache, remorse, and other scarring situations from my past. Music is my burning hearts passion, and what I know I was placed on this earth to do. I tour, write songs, and perform in hopes that I can reach at least, if any, just 1 person going through a tough time or struggle, and to make sure they know for a fact, they are NOT alone. • “Music is all around us, ypu just have to listen.” - August Rush “Music isn’t just background noise, or something you hear on the radio, at a party or restaurant. Music makes you feel, and remember things you’ve never felt before.” - Joshua Allen
To reach as many people with my aomgs, lyrics, performance… whatever it is, and insure in them that no matter what they are goin’ through, someone understands and they are not alone.
I’d look in the mirror and see what I need to change in myself first and foremost.

My past and present struggles and heartbreaking scars they’ve left on me… and my Daughter.
You. Are. Not. Alone.
Performing in front of a live, engaged audience is a natural high and feeling unlike any other feeling or emotion that I’ve ever felt… and NOTHING else gives me that exact feeling that performing does.
The reality in a musicians mind, or vision to say is in my opinion fogged over and somewhat blind to how it use to be. It’s all about “live streams” and “Social Media,” when it should be about writing songs and hittin’ the road to reach as many new people, and spread as much of your music, songs, and fire burning passion love for all that is music, as possible.
Drooble is a decent and ever-growing useful, and helpful outlet for independent and/or touring/recording artists and bands alike.
Un-Constructive Criticism, and one sided, close minded grudge fueled judgment.
Absolutely! Me and my guys are HUGE supporters of our local/surrounding music scene and the overall independent music scene as a whole body of 1. We make it a point and priority to go out and see as much live music as we possibly can when we’re at home, and have off time on the road touring.
Stay humble, remind yourself how blessed you are, stay true to yourself, and remain hungry and never just satisfied.
