Music

When I was in high school, I spent countless hours playing guitar, writing songs, rehearsing, and performing with my best friends, Nate Harris and Sean Burton, in our band: Moondog. It was really fun, and we took our music very seriously, even the pretentious Velvet Underground covers we played at every rehearsal.

Moondog: Unleashed

Just after high school graduation, we headed to the studio and recorded as many songs as we could afford to, a paltry four. We released an EP on cassette (we couldn’t afford a CD press at the time) called “Unleashed.” I wish I still had the album art!
