I am in the process of acoustically designing and building a new studio. This is the first time I have ever attempted something of this size and significance on my own...hopefully all will go as planned and I can have some pictures of my accomplishments!

Hello to Masako, Ikki, my friends at the preschool, the lovely town of Kamigori and everyone keeping busy back in Japan...I miss you all!

Time off to record some bands and relax. Hopes to get out in August, but nothing set in stone for now. Laid back on the pictures for now, so I apologize for no updates in awhile. I hope all of my good friends in Japan are doing well and all of you other deviants out there.

Masako, my Japanese Mother, I hope you and your family are doing well and I look forward to visiting you guys soon!

Check out Tera Melos and Foxy Shazam, they are great bands and also on tour with us and The Fall of Troy.

...with The Dear Hunter

Back from Australia, 1 month to rest and then a US Tour!!!

I am very excited about this tour because I get to see The Fall of Troy every night. They are going to be headlining the tour and their music is incredible. Check it out if you haven't had the chance!

Finally made it to the East Coast. The photography will continue in Australia for our upcoming tour beginning Feb. 20th!
