Bio

I'm a Southern Californian and second-time FAWMer looking to make and perform music. Simple, really.

When I first participated in FAWM back in 2010, I had a concept for my material thought out (a continuing story told over the course of 14 songs). This time, I'm being more open in regards to the subject matter. I'd like to write 14 songs about my son - who was born in the end of November of 2010 - and I've got several ideas for songs going in that direction. But that's a course I may or may not follow. I guess we'll see what I've got at month's end.

Listen to some of the songs I composed for FAWM 2010 in my SoundCloud account: http://soundcloud.com/jay-africa/sets/the-prophet/
