I grew up outside of Sacramento, California, and would spend my free time and my Summers mostly barefoot, near any river, stream, dirt path or lake I could find. When I was a teenager, my favorite years were spent living in a tiny apartment on Capital Ave. I’d try to go see local music almost every night of the week - the best coffee shops downtown would become the most inspirational small music venues. I've always felt Sacramento had some of the best kept secrets.
