BIO

Obdviously my name is derek overton.i am only 14, so cut me some slack, but not too much. i'm not going to write my life story like others on these types of things seem to do. but i play guitar, acoustic and electric, drums, bass, keys, vocals, and harmonica, ( but i have no harmonica written into any of my songs yet. along with piano.) i have played in multiple bands and always want to. i have been playing since i was 11 or 12 i think. most of my material is acoustic, folk, reggae, ska, etc. but i have some bluesy sounding stuff, sometimes i throw a rock edge into the mix. i guess a good way to classify my music is just to say i play whatever sounds good. i don't really stick to one genre. i recently moved to oregon from arizona, so i don't know much here yet, so if you want to book me, email me at mr.melodies6794@rock.com or contact me through here. i will have songs up in about two to three weeks hopefully. that's it for now i guess. sincerely, -derek

oh, that sucks.. The best place I've seen for the music scene though is the east coast. Especially New Jersey, New York, and Boston!
