Artist History At first this album was written as my way of dealing with his intense battle of alcohol and drug abuse — to free my frustrations and emotions of watching and participating in his pain and sorrow. Later, to tell his story, the story of his pursuit of the elusive success as a musician and his search for inspiration, knowledge, and positive energy in the world of mind altering substances.
