19 year old west coast based DIY musician.

Self taught guitarist, soon to be self taught
pianist/keyboardist. Everything is self recorded and produced in the corner of my bedroom.

Not adhering to any particular genres or styles, influences include Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Envy On the Coast (RIP), the Fall of Troy (also RIP), Say Anything, and much much more.

Not into auto-tune or any other major studio madness.

I use:

-Cheap department store acoustic guitar. As long as I'm broke, thats how it's gonna be.

-Cheap department store electric guitar. See above. Currently broken, I'll get it fixed...eventually.

-Roland Micro Cube amplifier.

-Digitech RP90 effects processor.

-Samson GoMic. Great little mic.

-Audacity for recording/layering/mixing.

-FL Studio for production, compression, and added touches (reverb, keys, etc.)

-Yamaha YPT-200 Keyboard.
