What is your go-to karaoke song?

I have performed hundreds of live shows in my career but have never once done karaoke. For some reason it makes me way too nervous, Go Figure... I guess I only feel comfortable singing my own songs.

What is an interesting fun fact about you?

If you're ever in Denver and go to see the Denver Nuggets you will hear my voice in the stadium as the "DEFENSE" chant. It's probably the most random and funniest gig I have gotten in my musical career. I am a big NBA fan so I jumped at the chance to take the gig. I have also never been to Denver in my life and love that that particular job somehow made its way to New Jersey!
