I'm a transplant from Minnesota trying to figure things out and be a decent human being. I like talking shit about the way things are, learning, playing rock & roll, getting out, and getting together.

Going to Portland Community College, studying music mostly, working, and playing in a band around town. Right now i'm just enjoying my youth while I get my Associate's Degree taken care of. I really enjoy playing in this band, and meeting all these crazy, cool, weird ass Portlanders, going to and having parties every once in a while, and staying busy!

I'm a well rounded musician (Piano, trombone, mandolin, banjo, drums, bass), but guitar is my main instrument. Other than that i'm good at comebacks, getting into bars, talking real, guessing, drinking beer, massaging backs, snowboarding, being a pal, and staying up too late.

that I look like Nicholas Cage in Raising Arizona.

Books: Into The Wild, Ishmael (Any Daniel Quinn), Leo Tolstoy's books, The Road, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
Movies: Lord of the Mother fucking Rings! Classic Disney movies.
Music: Just to name a few top favorite artists let's go with Bright Eyes, Deer Tick, Jamie T, The Avett Brothers, The Black Keys, The Beatles, Wu-Tang Clan, Ryan Adams, Crystal Castles, The Replacements, and Desaparecidos.

Family, Friends, Guitars, Music playing device of any kind, hot sauce, cosmic perspective, a little sleep now and then

Hanging out and drinking with friends, going to house shows, playing shows, or having band practice

for any reason you get that burning desire to!
