Biography:
Music was never in my plans, it just happened by chance. I have always written poems, and a friend suggested writing songs. Boom studio in Toronto recorded three songs, and when the recordings were completed; everyone in the room including me knew that I was born to write songs. The future looks bright but I remain humble, practicing my craft daily and awaiting the right opportunities. Whether it's on my guitar or with my pen, I craft my songs naturally. My influences are Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bernie Taupin, Sia Furler, Diane Warren, Bill Withers, David Bowie, Al Green and many others. I write pop, country, R&B, electric rock, and electric soul songs. Some say that there is a John Legend feel to my songs, but I believe that it is a mixture of all the above; who have influenced me.
