When I was about 10 years old, my uncle John showed my sister and me how to play a couple chords on the guitar. After mastering those few chords, I taught myself the rest. My parents divorced in a violently traumatic way and we moved from Los Angeles to the Pacific Northwest with my mom. When I discovered punk rock, a new door opened to me. It was a perfect outlet for my frustration and anger. Putting on headphones or going to a punk show was an escape from my dysfunctional family and all of the problems we were facing. On both of my parents’ sides of the family is a turbulent history of alcoholism, drug addiction and sexual abuse. I felt alone, but through music I found a new family. By 13 I had started my own punk band. We embarked on our first tour two years later. Our heroes were Black Flag, Minor Threat, Buzzcocks and a bunch of local bands like The Rickets, PUD, The Cleavers, The Unabombers and The Displacements. We put on our own shows at the local Teen Center and in garages and living rooms. My first vinyl 7″ record came out in 1998 and since then, I haven’t looked back.
My “main squeeze” was Clorox Girls. From 2003-present we’ve released 3 albums on LP/CD, ten 7″ singles, one cassette, and 1 CD discography. In our “prime” we toured 10 months out of the year and lived in our van. We frequently toured Europe, Canada, and the U.S., and were fortunate enough to tour Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina.
In the last few years, while spending time living in Europe, I enjoyed playing in side projects Red Dons, Mano De Mono, , Suspect Parts and Role Models. My most recent musical project is LA Drugz which is a 70s punk/60s pop band with some great harmonies. Our influences are the music we love, but namely The Nerves, Buzzcocks, The Kids, Stones, Small Faces, Love, Seeds, Lollipop Shoppe, and the Zombies. I was also convinced to join up with a couple of nogoodniks in the L.A. punk/glam band Maniac.
Here’s a very selective discography listed below; all of the records, mostly vinyl, a few CD’s, a couple of cassettes. Most of this stuff is out of print although plenty is still available.
