So Who Am I?

I’ve been playing music for as long as I can remember, starting with a karaoke machine, and my parent’s vinyl records and 8-tracks when I was 4.

I got into songwriting originals initially (after learning to play Smoke on The Water and Stairway to Heaven, of course!), and eventually started playing cover sets when my friends were having a hard time booking people who could play a wide enough variety for the varied tastes of our generation. Nothing beats the joy on a metal head’s face when I suddenly start playing Killswitch Engage or Black Sabbath acoustically just for them! Or when the bar lights up to sing to Taylor Swift or Roberta Flack!

I now play my Sami Urban sets all over the Atlantic region, as well as work on my solo project, Attrimony, and tour with my rock band Bastion’s Wake from time to time!
