Like Joe Satriani wailing with Tom Morello jamming riffs over a soundtrack written by Muse. Riding sound waves, crushing groove, surreal harmonization – adrenaline CRANKED

Music has always been an important element to my life and helps keep me balanced. Every since I was young I’ve been extremely creative whether it’s writing, art or music and it’s cool to have this platform to share some of my ideas

Music has always been one of my greatest passions, the ability to have a blank canvas and create whatever masterpiece you want is a very powerful experience. You will notice that on some of the songs the recording quality isn't the best, but these songs were recorded over the course of years apart and my ability as a guitarist and composer grew vastly. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page and I hope you enjoy the music.
