Dep't of Records first noticed the incredible virtuosity of this young musician during his stint with Austin-based act, The Asylum Street Spankers. After leaving the Spankers, Sick recorded an amazing version of 'Nasty Habits' for our Oingo Boingo Tribute. He's been working hard as a regular member of seven (7) different acts. 
Formed in early 2002 as the new millenium's answer to the psychedelic 60s, Sunflower Sutra tried to embody the heart of Janis, the emotion of Jimi, and the melodic instinct of Jerry.
