• I started as a drummer, so I sort of took on singing duties by default. I had sung backgrounds and some lead vocals from behind the drums in different bands that I'd been in, and I'd gotten great responses for the songs I would sing.

One day, it just dawned on me that, 'Hey, I could be in a band and be the singer, and it would be a lot easier!'
