Artist History Well, here's my history: I started playing when I was 10 years old. What got me into playing was hearing Master of Puppets from Metallica. I loved that song and I was like, I've got to play the guitar. I played the keyboard when I was 7 so I had some sort of a musical thing going already. I sure did pick it up quick. I took lessons from numerous guitar instructors, from learing scales, classical music, site reading, jazz, and the key one soloing. By the age 14 I got into Joe Satriani and I heard the song, The Crush of Love. I was like "WOW!" This guy wrote a song with no words, all music, and u know what he's . . talking about. Right there, I had to start recording songs. I couldn't write lyrics worth a damn . . I pretty much can't write lyrics now, but after hearing that song, I wanted to write instrumentals. One of my latest guitar instructors Steve Benford had a home recording studio so we starting recording my songs. I recording my first song at the age 16 and now I'm 20 and I've got 25 songs, just dying to get on MP3.com. You'll like my music, I promise
