bc

​being young and persistent i decided to try my hand at music since “smart ass” wasn’t yet developed as a viable career path.  after playing way too many bars, street parties, and wedding dances (why, yes uncle joe, please come up on stage, we’d love to hear you sing some elvis), i decided to get a few degrees and actually generate an income.  i spent the next couple decades working for a good girl gone bad, and when we parted ways i thought i would take a stab at an album as my only other significant achievement in life was making a firm choice between creamy and chunky peanut butter.  it's creamy, if you must know.  with the support of better friends and family than i deserve, i went forward confidently with this project... older and still persistent.  i hope that you enjoy the effort, or at the very least that you paid for the album… i owe people money.
