Buddy sees himself as a pretty happy guy. That light‑hearted quality shines through in his live show and in his wonderfully dark cover of the popular Kelis song Milkshake found on his new EP, entitled «Buddy». Rest assured, there is much more to Buddy underneath the silky covers...

Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Buddy began feeding his love for music at an early age. At 10 he was begging his mom and dad for a guitar and by 16, had formed his first REM- inspired band.

Buddy left Portland to attend college at Providence College in Rhode Island where he majored in English and struggled with a strong case of stage fright.

The two joined forces to produce and record Buddy's 1st EP, which was simply titled «Buddy». It hit the streets November 30th, 2004.

Shortly after finishing the EP, local DJ Tricia Halloran of the station KCRW in Santa Monica began playing a track called «Salt Point» on air.
