This is awesome, man. Thank you so much for sharing that.

Well damn, that’s a really killer question man. 

Well I started out playing on and off when I was about the age of 13. When I first started playing I learned really simple chords and some finger style. I wasn’t really into and I kinda just did it because it was what I was “supposed to do” (even though I wanted to play guitar). Later I got a new guitar teacher who only played blues and jazz. (age 14-15) He taught me a lot about improvisation, technique, how to jam, and a tiny bit of theory. I took all this knowledge and practiced on my own for about a year or so and started a band with my two best friends called “eros”. We were a post rock band and it was a stretch for playing and style. After a while though I caught on and learned how to make basic crescendo-core. We ended up disbanding after about 10 months of playing. Now I’m working with another of my friends on a really simple punk ep, just so we can work on something. A lot of my style is just based off my attempts to steal and mix styles of my favorite guitarists.
