Born and raised in Toms River, NJ, but established as a singer/songwriter in Philadelphia, Bootsy Spankins, P.I. artfully crafts modern pop songs that are smart and attachable. The lyrical themes range from sex, suburbia, sadness, etc., while the music generally maintains a catchy throwback to late '60s/ early '70s arrangements (i.e. Burt Bacharach, The Carpenters).
