Hello. I'm a Jeff Buckley meets Muse via Beck with some Fiona Apple, Rufus Wainwright, and Radiohead thrown in. I think that sentence keeps getting longer as I keep writing music. Much of my music is darker, sometimes angry, sometimes desperate, often looking at struggles with my self and my place in the world. It's a roller coaster, but I do believe at some point I'll lighten up.

Dude, Alex,

I would just like to thank you for being such an inspiration. Every time I see you play live, you bring so much of yourself and deliver such an awesome show, that I'm always amazed at what I've just seen. You push me to play better, to think deeper about my songs, and to have more fun while I'm performing. Cheers, because it only gets better from here. =)

Oh I wish I could come to your show! a) because I want to see you play b) because I want a free drink and c) a 13 year old bass player?? Really?

Why am I in London right now? Not to worry, I'm moving back to SF and I will come see you another time.
