ABOUT

Hey there, fellow creative musicians!

I'm an energetic singer-songwriter/guitarist seeking equally enthusiastic collaborators. I'm mainly looking for a lead guitarist, a bassist, and a drummer/percussionist, and some back-up vocalists, but I'd also love to find other singers/songwriters to write music with. Likewise, violinists, cellists, and pianists/keyboardists are welcome as well; I am always pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the guitar and such instruments sound together.

I've been playing the acoustic guitar for about 8 years now. I started out with a classical nylon-string guitar, and every now and then I still enjoy playing some classical pieces. I currently have about 40 original songs in diverse genres encompassing Alternative, Pop, Rock, and light Country. I sing and write in English, Korean, and French.

I've performed as the lead vocalist, songwriter, and guitarist for a New York-based acoustic band, and various amateur bands in Seoul. Here in DC, I am the founder and organizer of WSSC, the premier Washington Singers & Songwriters Circle: ://.meetup/The-Washington-Singers-Songwriters-Circle/

I'm located on Georgetown campus.
