Oscar had always had a love for music, and the arts in general. His mother often considered him the most eloquent of the family. When he was 17, he was sent over the sea into the Great War, spending time there for a year before being sent back. He doesn't often speak of those times. When he got back, he joined a small jazz band at a jazz bar and made quick friends with his bandmates. He had always been ambitious. he always wanted more in life, though he doesn't have much hope to find more.
