Bio

This will be my 5th year attempting FAWM. Each year, I've come away with songs that I like, so I'll keep doing it until I hate them all. I am really big into the less-is-more thing when it comes to lyrics, so if you don't get that sort of thing, you might not get my stuff. woo woo!

I love hearing what folks come up with, too.

Since I'm such a gearhead, I'll share with you the equipment I'm using: Macbook Pro, Logic 9, Presonus Firestudio, some mics, a crappy Pearl Export kit, Hofner 500/2 club bass, Gibson ES- 335, Fender J Mascis Jazzmaster, Danelectro baritone, Gibson J-100, ZT Amplifiers, Roland V Drums.

My favorite of my four new songs, "Dystiny", is currently a zong. Want to bust it?

Thanks, Timothy. I'll check out your stuff as well. I've got a lot of listening to do.

Awesome backing vocals, I love it! A pleasure working with you

It would please me to write a song together. It would please me to make a whole album, for that matter.

I'm a REAPER man!

Oh, nice idea! I always forget about that Leslie sound, I've got a VST one somewhere but I haven't tried putting anything non-Organ through it really. One for the to-try list!

I'm up for having a go if you've got some musical ideas, yeah! Swing something over to the email address on my profile and I'll see what I can do

You are influenced by TMBG. Thus, you have been watchlisted.
