Growing up in Fort Lauderdale , Florida , Jason Lee Greenberg has been studying guitar since the age of seventeen. He moved to Texas in 2002, where he majored in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Houston.
During college in 2003, Jason was introduced to Jennifer Grassman through a school bulletin board flier advertising for band members. The couple performed numerous concerts together as a duo and a rock band before marrying in 2006.

In the past, Jason has played with several bands including a heavy metal group called Eden’s Twilight, which toured clubs across Texas .
