Chilled out ambient dub and experimental acoustic stuff, plus various other genre hopping experiments.

I have been playing music ever since I picked up a guitar in 2005, when I was 13. I started taking lessons from Stan Cambel, he played guitar on tour with The Allman Brothers and played with several other notable artists. I started many bands varying from metal to reggae to various indie styles. I now also play ukulele, bass, and sing. Songwriting has always been a passion and talents I've possessed though. In February of 2010, I decided to work on my debut EP, Cupid's Poison, and got help from Harold Cowart and Big Bass Brian (Gardner). Harold Cowart is the ex-bassist for The BeeGee's and Brian Gardner has Mastered several artists from Mariah Carey to Lamb of God to Sublime. I had the song, Launch Off submitted to Vh1's Song of the Year contest and made it all the way to the Semi-Finals. 
My style is a mixture of Acoustic Rock, College Rock, Reggae, RockSteady, Ska, pop, and blues thrown perfectly into a blender and topped with the fun and sincere voice of myself. 
I was born and raised in Baton Rouge, LA and I'm 19 years old. I have lots of family spread from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. I love my hometown but I love, even more, to travel and meet new people and new experiences, so now I live in Winter Park, FL. I started going to Full Sail University, in the Music Production Program, just a month after graduating high school (Class of 2010). I love waterskiing, wake boarding, and kneeboarding and I am hoping to learn, very soon, how to surf.

Cheers,
