has a passion to play the drums. There were no real
drums available to him at that time, so Avaton would
use two pieces of sticks to hit old cans and sing to
the rhythm. This was done at his favorite place, which
is under the cherry tree in the backyard.

His dream is to make make gospel CDs, and distribute
