DREAM GIG: Would have been to open for Steve Goodman
FAVORITE LYRIC: “I could build me a castle with memories just to have somewhere to go”- Blaze Foley
CRAZIEST PERSON I KNOW: My instinct is to name the most seemingly “normal person” I know assuming that deep down they’re absolutely crazy. So let’s go with Brian Englishmen (a buddy of mine from NJ )
SONG I WISH I WROTE: I try not to go down that rabbit hole. When you write a tune it’s easy to see the flaws in it even if others don’t so why ruin the mystery.

MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: Watching David Dondero (A huge hero of mine) play at an Elks Club in my hometown for a bunch of my closest friends last holiday season.
I WROTE THIS SONG: Live, I introduce this song as a protest song disguised as a love song, disguised as a protest song about the “Post graduate student housing crisis”…Otherwise it’s a true story.
