Artist description I create instrumental music because I love the challenge and beauty of expressing myself with the nothing but the guitar. I also really like impressing girls, and instrumental music allows me to lie and tell every girl that the song is about her. Ok, so I'm full of it. That's not why I like instrumental music. I write instrumental music because I have to. If I didn't write music I would explode and the world would end. Something inside my mind drives me forward every day to write music and it is truly a pleasure to share it with you. The guitar is a gorgeous instrument. It is violent, passionate, comical, and romantic. I truly love playing guitar and I believe that comes out on my albums. However, the strength of my music is in composition. Every note exists to serve the meaning of the song, and this methodology of creating music will no doubt provide you with a deep, exciting, and crazy listening experience. Everyone has music playing in their soul, and I would be honored if you added me to the soundtrack of your life. Enjoy!

Artist History I started playing guitar at age 14 because I was a bored, angry teenager. The guitar was my doorway into music, and music now controls my life. Seriously I need help. All I do is write and play music. If you know of anyway to help me, please let me know. I can't sleep anymore. I just play and play and play. It's awful. I hate the guitar. haha I am currently living in Washington State where I concoct all kinds of crazy things in my room, including the music you are listening to. I plan on writing tons of crazy music for as long as I'm still around. My first CD, "The Adventures of Guitarman" was released in June of 2000. "Heroes and Villains" is my second intrumental CD.
