How many years have you been playing:  8 years

Who is your favorite Blues artist:  He's not purely a blues guy, but Eric Johnson has has a big influence on my technique and sound.  Of course, SRV, Robert Johnson, and BB King have also influenced my playing.

Favorite BluesEd moment:  Definitely Jazz on the Green.  The guys in the main act wer just so chill and easy to talk to, plus it's always fun to play for a big crowd.

Hobbies outside of BluesEd:  I lead my own indie rock band called The Whale Factory, we just released our first album in early May (available now on iTunes).  I spend a lot of time reading, lifting and studying business.
