The singer recently shared, “There are two ways that really resonate with me, in what I enjoyed about the last Stage It experience. First of all, playing these online shows are all about the fans.

I think it breaks down the walls of the artist / fan relationship in ways that a rock performance with Chiodos could never do.” He continues, “The other side comes from a more personal perspective. The truth is, I just love making music. I love being creative. I love performing. I love singing, and I love playing guitar. [Read More]
