Birthplace: New Haven

Musical past and present in one rambling run-on sentence: I guess my life has always been a long quest for the formation of Chaser Eight. I have been playing music with Pat, lead guitarist, since I was 10 and Billy, bassist, since I was 18, so even though we have been in different projects doing different things it has now always felt like we were doing all of this just to end up in Chaser Eight.
