I was born in Baltimore, Maryland on December 10th, 1991. Growing up, I became a very unpopular kid at school because I was not good at sports and I stuttered since the age of 3. Lucky for me, I grew up in a family who loved music. Everything changed when I heard the Beatles for the first time. They sparked my desire to play guitar.
As my passion for music grew, I began singing and realized I didn't stutter when I sang. My first performance was playing "Cheeseburger in Paradise" by Jimmy Buffett with my brother, Vinny and a friend of his at our school. It was then that I knew I loved to perform.
Throughout high school, I continued playing guitar and singing. I developed interests in great artists and bands such as Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Tom Waits to name a few. Realizing I did not fit in with today's music, but rather, I resonated with the Psychedelic, Classic Rock, Folk and Blues sounds of the 60's and 70's. This music had an effect on me unlike anything else.
At the age of 17, I started performing regularly all over Maryland. I began performing at open mic nights and quickly worked my way up to be the featured artist. I began playing the harmonica with the guitar and was able to cover one of my favorite artists, Bob Dylan.
Currently, I am releasing my first CD of all original work entitled "October Streams", which is an expression of my beliefs, dreams and visions. I am pursuing my passion and feel it is my calling to be a musician.
