BIRTHDATE: 12/10/1988
HOMETOWN: Knoxville, TN

AMBITIONS: Making the best music that we know how to is our general ambition as a band, if we end up making a living as a bonus then that’d be fantastic.
TURN-OFFS: Pleather.

DREAM GIG: In Rio during World Cup.
FAVORITE LYRIC: ‘And the news it just repeats itself, like some forgotten dream, that we’ve both seen’ from “Hello In There” by John Prine
CRAZIEST PERSON I KNOW: I guess that changes all the time haha – my band mates are certainly in the running.
SONG I WISH I WROTE: That’s a hard one to narrow down! “Rock n’ Roll Suicide” by David Bowie stands out right now.
5 PEOPLE I’D MOST LIKE TO HAVE DINNER WITH: Willie Nelson, Anthony Bourdain, Patton Oswalt, Tina Fey and Isaac Hayes.
MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: This past weekend we had the chance to play Hangout Beach, Music and Arts Festival. We played to an incredible crowd and we’ve never been treated better as performers.
I WROTE THIS SONG: I wrote Radio Silence in the wake of a large change in my life so it is very much a song of transition and change.
