Phil appears on the Newest 2010s demo tracks as well as The Golden Ticket. His guitar work and style are always perfectly fitting to Leah's melodies and song writing. Leah's right hand man before leaving for the West Coast, Phil and Leah still play shows together when she returns to the Midwest. He's a great guitar player, an even better person and an amazing asset to have on Leah's musical team.
*Why Did You Start Playing Music?
I had no friends back in 3rd grade, so I made friends with a guitar. I borrowed my uncle's acoustic guitar for about 2 years and after I abused that thing and get him really pissed, I decided it was time to get my own, so I pleaded with the 'rents to get me some kick ass gear and it snowballed from there.
*What Are Your Words To Live By?
To quote the movie Boiler Room, "Act as if..." If you don't believe in what you do, then don't do it. If you want to play guitar, act as if you are the best player out there.
*What Are Your Goals?
My goals are simple. Have fun doing the things I like. I have no major aspirations except to be successful and happy. Whether it's playing music live or helping build and repair computers. To quote my boss, "I do what I want."
