"It was a thursday and thanksgiving was on friday. I decieded to ditch with a friend of mine we walked slowly back home smoking cigarettes and getting high once I got home around 12 I had a beat in my head that I had to play. I began recording in my room and the song "Ive loved you for so long" was created. Though I did not write it for anyone, well to think about it I kinda did. An ex of mine Elaine called me. We talked as friends though still mad for cheating on me that summer of that year I ended up hanging up on her then I did the song. Maybe I was in love once in my life well twice to be exact in 2007 and in mid 2008. 2 girls Rochelle and Elaine. Man.. Still hurts thinking of it. It's not even compared to most of the broads Ive dated later which I ended not giving a shit in the end because of the dumb excuses they use for a break up. Anyways, Prologue EP is the first 4 songs I did in November 2009. I would play the songs back at my old high school where I graduated in Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo High School. Although I am not much of a solo artist as Jesus is (he is more experienced to it). We would all ditch school and go to guitar center in Cerritos by Cerritos mall in the morning smoke a few cigs play instruments and sing. We recorded 2 songs together while we were in guitar center in a small acoustic room. The room was nice for a acoustic jam and to record. Later on way later on we did another 2 songs together singing which were later officially unreleased. In mid 2010 I finally recorded my few debut solo entitled "Growing Calm Together" Its about 8 songs or 9 I believe of bullshit of the depths of my life and love life (sorta). Though I believe I half assed my debut length for some reason. I will always remember those late nights when we would all lay back and relax and dance in the cold breeze. My friends, everything around me in this city I live in is fully dedicated to my solo work Ive done. Though I see me as a shitty solo artist somewhat. I am planning on doing another release under the name Homeless Life. I have recorded a 4 song summer demo down and hopefully I will get it out mid August. Also I have found old lyrics I never used for any songs which also has titled to each song. I picked these 2 sheets of paper with 6 songs written. Replacing parts, Counting on, Comparision in me, Numb hands, Lost, and Poverty. I didn't know that these lyrics for each of these songs were so powerful yet all these years they just sat there in my room waiting to be burned. I am hoping this Self titled by Homeless Life will change the course of my music history. I see this as a very positive view to my solo stuff. This time I am thinking of going more a bit shoegaze acoustic that will sound like songs from the pine "Face drawings" or that sounds like the 90's shoegaze band Low. I believe the shoegaze sadd gloomy sound gives it a strong emotion to the acoustic era. Im those type of people that look back to things and see how easily we adapt to whats new for us. I don't know maybe its just me being wierd but thats just me"

Jesus
Jesus is more of an expert on solo music than myself. Many know him for his great singing and playing. I know the dude as a pot head, happy hippy, who is interested in knowledge. He is a very cool dude and a close good homie of mine. I remember meeting him back in 2008 I believe at a kickback (which was one of my first) my first impression was that he looks swell and interesting in apsects. I talked to him and from there we became good buddies. I love smoking with the guy. In early 2010 he released Sad album which were about 9 songs I believe. Though in the end he told me that he didnt like this release he did, I actually admired it alot. Lady in blue which is a song of his does sound a bit alike the intro to Ive loved you for so long. If you ever stop by Long Beach and mention Jebus most likely someone in the crowd will know him. He sometimes mentions of another solo album he wants to release but its been a while since he is working on other stuff, though you will find him at the swapmeet in Harbor college playing music for money. Ever see him talk to him, very chill guy and has a lot of knowledge. I am always interested what this guy talks about as much of a hippy he is, plus smoking with him is very releaxing. Ive been wanting to start an instrumental math rock project band with him but for now we got to much shit that we hope in the near future to start. I believe if me and him join forces we will destroy in this band. Anyway here his debut length.
Sad Album
