I have been a freelance writer and music journalist since 1990.

I have contributed to Billboard, No Depression, ChronicMagazine.com, Columbia Free Times, Country Standard Time, Charleston’s Free Time, Lexington Life, The Lexington Chronicle & Dispatch, Palmetto Parent, Upstate Parent, Carolina Homes & Interiors, and more over the years.

This blog is a forum for me to write stuff my usual outlets either won’t or can’t publish for various reasons–limited space being the most common one. Whenever something here is connected to any of my other published work, I’ll note that, otherwise it’s safe to assume that everything here is exclusive content not found anywhere else.

If you’re a band interested in having your music reviewed or your story told, drop me a line at kageyo@yahoo.com or through my Myspace profile.
