“Do the best you can until you know better, and when you know better, do better.” – -Maya Angelou
Son of an entrepreneur that moved around texas alot as a kidSemi-pro skateboarder from 14 to 17ish
Made his grades in school so there was no trouble with education
Father was a Real Estate investor, Jason was a handyman for him to make money as a kid
At 16, Jason broke both knees, followed closely by his father disappearing from the family
His dad liquidated all of his assets and fled only to be taken from the family a year and a half later
His guitar skills are almost a spite move to be better than his father at it
They have since reconciled their relationship and get along well now
In the pursuit of his artistic greatness Jason lived the greaser life, couch surfing, borrowing cars, whatever it took to focus solely on his guitar playing
Through all of his successes and recording with Leon Bridges, John Mayer and the like, Jason has moved from the rockstar life on to DJing under the banner of Electrophunck, check him out(Spotify – iTunes)
