"I grew up near Milwaukee Wis., and started a band. I moved to Milwaukee, the band changed into the Modern Machines and that became my life until the drummer quit at the end of 2006. Then, I moved to Brooklyn and did the Radio Faces, followed by the Used Kids, both of whom put out one full length album and some assorted other records. Now, I'm back in the Midwest. Me and the Blue Diamond Band are ready to rock some socks. Stay free!" Read more on Last.fm
