Founders

Hi! My name's Kayla! I'm twenty, from Maryland and possibly the clumsiest person you'll ever meet. I went to school for video production/ post production so I figured "why not try my hand at capturing things when they're still!?" I dig the ins & outs of music and can't wait to dive into all of it with Salazen!  

Bands I Recommend: AFI, Thirty Seconds To Mars, Bleeker, The White Noise, My Enemies & I, Night Riots, Bad Seed Rising, As It Is, Walkney
