To Love Sophia

BIOGRAPHY
Eclectic with Continuity, Arcane and Eldritch.'To Love Sophia' is a solo artist from Stevens Point Wisconsin. Being a solo artist is such a masturbatory activity. I must really suck or I have a talent that the average person can't recognize or choses not to. I don't do this for the recognition but it would be nice to get a biscuit every once in a while. I've been writing and recording for such a long time. It has become such a huge part of my nature I can't stop. I thought I'd quit years ago but if I ignore the creative process for too long my inner child begins to scream that it is wrong to sell out and conform to 9-5 existence and be happy chasing someone else's expectations. So I write and record and play and record and take naps and wonder why Paris Hilton is so popular and why women get boob jobs instead of going to counseling to learn how to be ok with themselves and watch friends hoard material possessions and amplify their egos by these accumulations as they buy into the consumer mentality that the system promotes. I watch and write and wonder what the fuck?

BAND MEMBERS
Everything was done by 'To Love Sophia' except the picture of the Martini's . I play and record and edit all my stuff. My arsenal includes the following; 6 String Carvin Bass, 8 string Ibanez guitar, 7 string Ibanez guitar, Korg Keys, Vocals when present and I play the drums. Boom Boom. I'm a bass player at heart. I love the drums!!! So, I like big and boom and thick. I've been influenced by everything and it comes out in odd places in the way I write. I hope you enjoy my sounds half as much as I enjoy creating them Thanks RPM for pushing me again this year!!! You literally ROCK!
