I do interviews from time to time and I am always asked the same question: Who are you influenced by? An incredibly great question, however, I always feel like I never answer it correctly. I seem to pick 1-3 artists or bands and come to a loss for words. After every interview I can think of so many band and artists that have absolutely shaped me and could not possibly recognize them all in one sitting. This blog is all about that. I wanted to publicly document, praise and thank the following artists and bands that have been brave and excellent and have been a part of my development. This may take awhile ;)
The Beatles
Brian Wilson
Madonna
Michael Jackson
Cyndi Lauper
Prince
Dolly Parton
