I came up with the name 'Dear Diary' back in 1999 when I purchased my first 12-string acoustic guitar. At that time, I had made the transition from playing music with a group of friends in a local punk band to writing my material on the acoustic guitar. It became a way for me to catalogue and capture events in my life. It has since become a means of journaling for me. I've never been able to dedicate myself to maintaining a written journal |

WHAT INSPIRES YOU AS AN ARTIST? From an artistic perspective, the ability to communicate emotions through the medium of songwriting is both inspiring and unique. Music allows me the freedum to express myself in way that others can relate to at some level. It's rewarding to be able to reach people and elicite emotional reactions from them through my music. For myself, writing and performing music has always been about reaching out and making those connections with others. From a musical standpoint, there have been several influential artists that have inspired me throughout my life, key among those being The Cure. Their music has truly been an major |

their musical intregrity and Robert Smith's brutally honest and emotionally charged music, all of which has inspired me in my own musical endeavors. |

WHAT WAS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE SONG 'GIVING UP' ? It was an angry response to someone that broke my heart. It is, in essence, an apathetic and subjective decleration of disdain and discontent juxtaposed |

What is a blog you ask? The term "blog" is short for "web blog". Blogs feature text,photos, and links to other web pages. There are many variations to how blogs are set up, but essentially an author of a blog will post journal entries and web surfers can write comments. Blogs are displayed in a reverse chronological order displaying a string of entries and comments. Blogs are a nice way to get more information about an individual or subject. The popularity of blogging has soared since its start in the 1990's. Ready to get your blog on? Click here for the Richmond Buzz Music Blog Community. |

WHAT WAS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE SONG 'CITY LIGHTS' ? A good friend of mine committed suicide years ago. It took me several years until I was able to fully write about it. This song is the end result. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE MOMENT/EVENT AS A MUSICIAN IN 2006? To be honest, being able to begin performing again has been the highlight of my year. I had been busy with graduate school and hadn't been able to devote time to performing live. Now that I'm getting a chance to share my music with others, the response has been great and has been met with a warm reception! Want More Dear Diary?? Go to www.myspace.com/deardiaryband
