Download 'Lock Stock & Barrel' to hear some of the best of what Southeastern VA has to offer in all original, modern alternative pop rock! Started making music in when I was a teenager - Crimson Lace when I was 15 was our first all original band What makes our music different? - It appeals to both the heart and the head combining power pop choruses with guttural, soulful vocals with high intensity guitar riffs, rhythms and solos that are blues rocked based, but scream loudly to the alternative crowd. It's important to connect to my music fans so they can hear songs that will touch them at a deep level and take them to better place by sharing the common bonds of the human experience. As an artist Exploding has logged years of writing, recording and gigging, which has always been intense and authentic with a steady steam of road worn creative consciousness.
