Music Quotes
-
I attended the High School of Industrial Arts and studied with many great artists as painting is something that you never stop learning about. Actually, in high school there was a time that I was thinking about just concentrating on painting and I asked my music teacher, Mr. Sondberg, for advice and he encouraged me to stick with the music as well. So all my life I have been singing and painting.

I don’t really care how music comes to me, as long as it is a good song. I would not want to be a new band trying to make today.

I play live and put out records when I feel like it.
