I have always been a person of the arts. I was lucky to be young and know exactly what I wanted to do. I wanted to be involved in acting and music.
I was a Thespian and participated in many plays in high school as well as band and choir.
During my Junior and Senior years I wrote a film review column for the school paper.
After graduation I continued to write film reviews for the town paper "The Bellevue Gazette" . I did this for a year while trying to decide if I should go to school or move to another city and pursue a career in acting.
A close friend of mine started to play the guitar, and after seeing him play I went out and bought one for myself. I was twenty years old and it was the beginning of my music career. I had not even had the guitar a day and after learning only two chords I was writing a song.
My friend and I started a cover band, and we called our selves "Ida Maybe"
After a year of playing I felt I was ready. I packed up and moved to Austin TX, the live music capital of the world.
I spent five years in Austin. I was a member of a band named "Redshift". We did well enough. We played a lot of shows and made some fans. But it was not meant to be. I left the band and spent a year in New Orleans. New Orleans was not what I had hoped and I returned to Austin. After a year of not finding the right band I decided to return home to Bellevue to begin writing my album.
My returning to Bellevue was for the sole purpose of recording the album that I sent to you. I have never been more proud of anything I have done in my life. My first solo Album "Pictures on the Wall" came out Jan. 30th.
