Hey Joseph! I see you go to NYU! I'm a high school senior and NYU was where I was DYING to go, but even with the scholarship NYU gave me it was just too expensive...so I decided to go to JMU next year. But anyway, I listened to a couple of your songs for the songwriting challenges, and I love your sound! What are you studying at NYU?
