My musical career really started when i was young at around the age 4. I began pulling pots and pans out and trying my best to mimmick the muppet babies "Animal" to be exact. It wasn't long after that that my parents purchased me a snare drum, and shortly after that the whole trap set. I took private lessons for close to 7 years mostly from a truely inspirational drummer "Lance Gilchrist". After I graduated high school I soon began pursuing a path down the melody road through the use of a guitar. After learning simple chords and utilizing my percussion skills i began developing my rhythm abilities into something more modern. I was given the chance to play bass for a band called "The Mad Cows", a classic rock cover band, and shortly after the end of that 3X7 began playing their own shows. For the last 7 years I have been lead singing and playing lead rhythm guitar and my intentions of setting high standards in learning and performing never cease to progress. I owe a lot of support to my family over all these years to believing in me and allowing me to take my time to pursue my dream. "It's always easy to talk the talk...but why walk the walk when you can run!" (my quote)

A true artist does not use his imagination, he lets his imagination use him. I am the bass player for 3X7 and have been since close to the beginning of 3X7. I always had an incredible passion, really an obsession with music, even though I didn’t start to play bass until I was out of high school. I like to say that I have the energy and soul of a lead singer and the mind and body of a bass player. I was always that guy that no one understood or even tried to figure out because just as soon as they thought I was one thing, I would do something to make them have to totally redefine their perception of me. I can’t say that my influences go directly in any direction at all. I can enjoy most everything from the heaviness and free spirit of metal like Slipknot and System of a Down to the randomness of indie rock. The powerful mentally relaxing sounds of classical music and even old country like Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash can give my ears a treat as well. I listen mostly to mellow and hard rock/metal like Chevelle, Filter, Deftones, Drowning Pool, Foo Fighters, Third Eye Blind and of course Tom Petty. I really can’t stand the fakeness of most pop music but I like the cool bands that just happen to sound poppy. I like to think I’m open to anything musically that isn’t repetitive nonsense or degenerative, de-evolving noise but even that is okay in the right/wrong state of mind, I guess.

Everyone knows what to live for when it becomes passion in stead of occupation.
I was never really turned onto music. Music really found me. I joined band in grade school and drove the teacher insane by insisting to take home and
learn every instrument possible, and then, I was eleven when my grandmother gave me one of those ancient, worthless, garage sale acoustic guitars with four nylon strings, and a stack of music books. (Still got it all too...) After almost seven years later, after giving up and starting over, and after miles of strings, teaching myself to play the guitar remains the hardest thing I've accomplished. I stuck to advancing on the guitar, not worrying about singing or writing music, but lately I've begun to work on these things. After playing alone for six years, the realization that I was "boring" myself set in. I needed something new, and wound up playing with the best damn hard rocking band in the area! Wanna know more, hit a gig and find me....

I began playing drums early in school, and I quickly took a liking to them practicing every chance I could get. I played marching snare drum in High School and the trap set mostly for pep bands. It was the early part of 2006 when I met 3X7 and they were in dire need of a drummer and I was looking to be in a Rock Band and not just pep any more. So after a few practices with them it was obvious that I would be their drummer.
