...and a bit about Joey
Joey - I spent my formative years in a town about 25 miles or so from Houston, Texas called Friendswood. Growing up with my wonderful parents who made trying anything I could think of possible. Baseball, Soccer, Lacrosse, and Karate were all things I had a passing interest in before my mom signed me up to take piano lessons. Piano led to saxophone in the 5th grade, which led to guitar. And after I decided the guitar had too many strings I took up the bass, drums, and singing. Playing in a local band I had the dreams of every garage rocker. But when superstardom seemed like a fantasy not worth chasing, and selling Mazdas at the local dealership lost its luster, I decided to move to NY.
I began an internship at a jingle studio in Manhattan shortly after moving in 2003 and slowly crept my way up the music composition ladder until I got where I am today; writing music for films.
Along the way, some not so unimportant things happened. Like meeting my beautiful wife, getting married, and as you could probably guess, buying a house.
Lana and I have always been fans of people who do for themselves what the commercial masses cannot provide. Anytime we cant find the perfect match for our respective tastes we just make a project out of it. (Sometimes to our benefit and sometimes not), but we never let a lack of know-how stop us from trying.
There are more projects in our minds than time in the day, so I'm sure that we will keep ourselves busy, and hopefully entertain and inspire some new do-it-yourselfers.
