“I’ve always loved music. My mom raised me on The Beatles and my dad on Van Halen. I got my first electric guitar at age 13 and formed my first band the next year. We wrote a few songs but never got the chance to fully record anything before going off to college. Though I dabbled in bass in high school, I mostly stuck to guitar until shortly before joining the Cosmic Jaywalkers.”
“I met Airius near the end of college and in 2018 we moved to Chicago with our friends; I met Casey through him shortly afterward. I later met James, Jack, and Tony through their work on Casey’s solo EP. Meanwhile, I got to know Andrew working a bar security job where he would sit in on drums with the house band. We were all fast friends and the more time we spent sitting around drinking Maker’s and noodling, the more we thought we should form a bona fide band, and I’ve been Jaywalking ever since.”
“Some of my favorite musical artists include Weezer, Nirvana, Billie Holliday, and The World is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die. I’m also a big fan of The Simpsons, Star Wars, Italian beef, and my cat Beans. When not Jaywalking, I can be found half asleep in my hammock over by the Lake.”
