Hey everyone, my name is Ray Van Lenten and I live in Santa Rosa, California. I play guitar, drums, and bass, and record, mix, and master my own music for fun. I started playing concert snare and various percussion instruments for band class in 4th grade, and by high school I was taking lessons for drum set, which didn't last long since I had also picked up guitar. There was always an abundance of acoustics around the house thanks to my dad, and I had also won a knockoff strat from that game at Six Flags where you shoot the star out of a card with a BB gun.
