I came home on leave from the war in 2005 and recorded the Far From Home EP  for no one but myself.  It was my release after 6 months in a combat zone.   It was amazing to work with my friends George Langis and Asim Ali.  Sean Keenahan played drums on the EP.    After recording the EP and attending prom with my high school sweet heart I went back to the combat zone and served an additional 7 months before coming home.  God Willing I came home alive.  If I wouldnt have, I hope this EP would have given those closest to me something to remember me by.    This EP was not meant to be perfect.  It was recorded direct to tape over just a few days time (since I was only home for 2 weeks on R and R).  I love the imperfections and the emotion in the songs every time I listen to them....   If nothing else... Its real..and it shows you where I was at in my head at that time.  20 years old about to go back to the war.........
