I've been a musician since the 4th grade. After high school, I made a decision to stop playing other peoples music and start writing my own. I've done so ever since. Being an artist doesn't always bring in the bacon, so, I've been Producing/Directing/Shooting and Editing television since 1987. My music and photography went with me to Telluride, Colorado where I became a ski videographer/photographer and local TV producer/director. However, after the drought season of '87-'88, I returned to San Diego to continue my education, SDSU, and start a new band, SCRATCH / SECTOR 7. after, graduating with honors. I've never given-up writing music, I wrote several commissioned pieces for the University of California.(soundtracks for show opens and such) Now, you can find my music all over the web! Including iTunes. Just search for "Alan M. Thwaites".
