I started playing the piano at 5. I played until 5th grade when I switched to trumpet. I continued with that until Junior year of high school when I joined the choir, which I stayed in until graduation. After graduation, I started writing music, doing vocals, playing piano and percussion with my cousin Aristotle Anonymous playing guitar, percussion and vocals. We continued working together primarily as a duo for the next 6 years. My brother ,Slim Waste, joined us playing keyboards bass, guitar, vocals and percussion. We continued on as a trio for the next 2 or 3 years. We started doing more solo stuff after that, occasionally working on a song or two with one or the other. In 1992 I got pneumonia and found out I had a major medical condition. I spent the next 2 years working only on solo projects, until I couldn't handle doing it anymore, because of health problems. In late 2003, I started transferring the audio tapes I had from then into the computer. On January 1 of 2003 I put my music on the Amazon.com Free Download Network. (they changed their policy and removed not only my songs, but hundreds of other artist's music the bastards) I decided that since I'm still here after all these years, I should get back to my music.
My song "Lovers Games..." is now a part of the soundtrack for the independent film "Pricks". "Pricks" is a dark comedy about an overpriveleged guy who has to go to work for his dad. He evalutes his life and what he's going to do with it. I relased my debut cd Radio Magnolia. (proceeds from sales goes to benefit the St. Hope Foundation AIDS Food Pantry in Conroe Texas) One of the songs that is on it called Search Engine won 7 awards on GarageBand.com:
