Andrew Leas

Summary
Andrew "Sharky" Charles Leas is a Polynesian-American producer and DJ, with his stage name being "ACLFX", which stands for Andrew Charles Leas Factitious Xenophobia, a name he picked because he of the concept of xenophobia. He is not a xenophobe himself, he just found the concept of closed-mindedness very interesting. He is currently working on his first extended play album, which will be released in 2018. He is naming it "The Shark-Bite EP" because of his childhood nickname. It will be EDM and dubstep-based, as that is the music he makes.

Early Life
Leas was born in Dover, New Hampshire on September 9, 1999, (which everyone thinks is cool because it's shortly written as 9/9/99). As a young child, Leas loved the pop culture phenomenon Star Wars and enjoyed learning everything from his father. Having a Spanish mother who was not in the picture was very hard for Leas, as he was very intuitive and wanted that feminine role in his life. He adopted the nickname "Sharky" from his father, then it got passed on to everyone. Rarely, people call him Andrew. He started getting into music when he was asked to be the MC for his eighth grade semi-formal. He then took over as DJ when the DJ got sick halfway through, and made sure the rest of the time was fantastic, as it was his last time in middle school. He then went on to high school and was the DJ for most school dances, even incorporating some his own music into the playlist. He is now 17, and enjoying music even more now that he has popularity and want it to be a career.

Now
Leas was involved in a one-vehicle accident in September of 2015, which nearly cost him his life. What is surprising about it is that he wasn't wearing his seat-belt. The medical examiners said if he had been wearing his seat belt, he would have been killed instantly. Alcohol was the cause of the accident. The other three people in the car were also intoxicated, but were killed. He was forever changed after surviving this experience, calling it a "blessing from the Lord and everyone associated with him" Leas now attends New Hampshire Job Corps after being withdrawn from both Coe-Brown Northwood Academy and Spaulding High School. He intends on becoming a mechanical engineer, but is using music to make money to go to college for a degree.
