Influenced by the credo of the post-punk revolution of the early 1980's, I set out to create a sound that was uniquely my own. Everything changed for me when I heard when I heard bands like U2, The Clash, Big Country, and The Alarm. There was so much passion in those songs that really spoke to me in my formidable years.

Growing up an hour out of NYC in New Jersey, I didn't look to the bright lights of the Big Apple for inspiration, but looked further across the ocean to the UK where musicians were driven by a passion to create new sounds, new ideas, and new images. That lead me on my quest to find other like-minded musicians to form a band to rival their counterparts in the UK. Although I played in bands in PA., Boston, and Los Angeles, I was unable to put together a group of creative individuals with the same ideals. As with many bands, the music was there but the ambition was not.
