I grew up in a ghost town that used to make cars; to drown out the sound of poverty we made music. Music was an escape that allowed us to become completely entwined in the moment, those moments became practice, the practice became a skill and eventually I landed a job at a radio station. I was 18 and producing network album premiers and a major market breakfast show. I have since realized that youthful confidence is jet fuel. I didn't know enough to realize I didn't really know a damn thing.
