My music is an eerie, organic blend of stories and brainchildren.
It's sincere, jazzy, bluesy, bluegrassy, and human.
It might even be entrancing.

I've got a smooth and well-trained voice, and a unique style of guitar-playing that usually stems from pure experimentation.

My songs are all original. I'm not a huge fan of covers, but I'm sure I'd enjoy them much more if I had some other musicians enjoying them with me. Even then, I always seem to pick obscure ones that nobody really knows. But I'm open.

I'm simply looking for musicians to play with. I would love accompaniment on my songs, to collaborate in songwriting, and maybe to play your songs. At home, in the studio, outside, at cafes, at bars, on street corners, at stadiums, festivals. Whatever we want, right? Is your heart an artist?

Influences:

Ani DiFranco, Joanna Newsom, Fiona Apple, David Bowie, Pedro the Lion, Joni Mitchell, Tom Waits, Sufjan Stevens, Keb' Mo', Turin Brakes, old lady jazzers and bluezers, Chris Thile, Lauryn Hill, Kings of Leon, Feist, Elliot Smith, Blues Traveler Tom Brosseau, Jose Gonzalez, K.D. Lang, you know, that sort of goodness
