Artist History I've always played music in some form or other (finally settling, for the most part, on piano, vocals, and some guitar), and even dropped out of college for a couple of years to see how far I could take it. As it turned out, that wasn't very far, and I ended up selling fish off a truck (which helped me grow up some), so I went back to college and am now happy to take gradual steps to increase the number of people with whom I've shared my songs.

Group Members Justin Katz: pretty much everything; Doug Fallone: I borrowed Doug from his band, Mr. Chu (www.mp3.com/mrchu), to do some guitar/drum/mixing work on "Too Good to Be True," "Crazy Child," "A Look at Us," "Midnight Rolls Around," and "Chasing the Tail"

Instruments Piano, vocals, guitar, keyboards

Albums Singing my song to painted walls
