about me
Music has always interested me. I was raised listening to the Beatles. Now I am more involved with music. My musical taste has expanded and now I listen to a plethora of genres; from indie to reggae to hip-hop to classic rock. When asked to make a list of my favorite bands the results are always different. To list a few right now, they would be Led Zeppelin, Our Lady Peace, the Beatles, Stone Temple Pilots, The Who, Modest Mouse... But I can listen to music just about anytime. The web is full of music and this site makes it easy to find delicious new music. I am honored to be on the team.
