How long have you been playing music?
I’ve been playing semi seriously for about 8 years.
When did you start creating it and recording it yourself?
I think I started recording songs about 4 years ago in my parents’ basement with an 8 track. The songs were super funny, I think I was pretty religious at the time. You know, Like Jesus and I were dear friends. I wish I still had them.
Are you working on learning any new instruments?
Not really. I want a mandolin and a sitar really bad, but I need new guitars first. I play the drums and piano pretty poorly if you want to count that. I need a T-shirt that says I was a pro snowboarder for ten years and all I got was a few shitty Japanese Fenders. Oh, and a European car.
What was it like having first part in Destroyer at such a young age?
I don’t really remember. That seems like a completely different life. I remember it was cool that I was making money for doing a bunch of switch frontside sevens, that was nice. It was fun traveling as well. I wish I could time travel you know?? It would be amazing to go back there as the person I am now instead of the complete tool I was then. We can only Dream.
Anything people don’t know about you?
Lots of things, probably. I don’t have any deep dark amazing secrets to share. I’m truly sorry. I feel like I’m a pretty liberal person, but I still want guns. How’s that?
