Artist description I'm a twenty year old singer/songwriter from Bloomington, Indiana. I have previously had two other projects on mp3.com, but I outgrew them both. So here I am, on my own, writing music I enjoy. I hope it makes you feel good too.

Artist History I have been in several bands during my career as an artist. I started out in 1996 at the age of 15, in the band Shed, with friends Grant Gibson and Brent Herzog. A year later, Shed disbanded, and Brent and I formed Oblivion on our own, recording a series of demos in 1998, and a studio recording of our song "Burning For You" in 1999. Oblivion disbanded in the summer of 1999, when Brent joined the marines. While enrolled at Oakland City University, I met up with guitarist Larry Main and bassist Stephen Risinger, and formed Purple Manitobi. I, however, transferred to Indiana University in the fall of 2001, and Purple Manitobi disbanded as a result. I created my first solo project, Bent Twig Productions, in May of 2001, while still involved with Purple Manitobi. Through this page, which you can still access at http://www.mp3.com/bent, I released two CDs, one of which is still available, and a single which is also still available. While known as Bent Twig Productions, I had seven consecutive top 40 songs on mp3.com, including three top ten hits. Currently, Bent Twig Productions is nearing the 5,000 mark for qualified plays.
