BIOGRAPHY
I grew up on the streets of South Boston, MA.
I went to Charlestown High Electrical Vo-Tech, where afterwards I joined the U.S. Marines. Upon leaving the service with an Honorable dischargeI went back to school and got my Electricians license.
I have always written lyrics for songs, poems, and I have written unpublished childrens books.
I have 5 songs under contract with a small publishing house in TX.
I just recently had 3 songs cut by a new up-coming country/pop star, "Rachel Scott." She is signed with Missile Records. They also have other artists that will be recording some of my other new songs I wrote recently just for them to fit their style. And the best news for last...Missile Records is signing me to a staff writing deal, and they are in the proccess now of joining a major label...

Sessions: David Bazan

It was pretty slow. I mean, I played [the songs] on acoustic guitar for a long time, but I didn’t know how to transfer them to the other format. I didn’t want it to be a solo acoustic record. I wanted there to be bells and whistles and full band arrangements even if I didn’t want it necessarily to be electric guitar rock....

Sessions: Vetiver

“It’s always slightly confounding to me whenever Vetiver is depicted with the same tropes that people have read off of press sheets,” says Andy Cabic. “The same sort of milestones get mentioned but then no one really digs to find out that there are those other things going on.”
