I've been very blessed to make a living in stuff I love and am totally passionate about, music and writing. So I'm eager to see what the day will bring, how I will feed that passion.

Bass players and drummers are brothers in the basement cooking up the groove that makes people move.

Those who go ahead provide a little light into the unknown.
