ABOUT

Hi there! I just moved back to the Sacramento area from Honolulu, where I lived for the last 10 years and learned to play the ukulele. I sing and write songs, and have nearly 20 originals written that I am starting to record. Many of my originals have a bluesy kinda country feel. Some are on the softer side, and some have a little reggae tinge. All of them are poetic, lots of them are about rising above the mediocre BS of modern culture, and some are about love.

I also love playing covers, and have maybe 30 or so that I know well. I’ve done gigs before and would love to get back into it. Some of my favorite covers to play would be Mirrors by Justin Timberlake, La Isla Bonita by Madonna, Dreams by Fleetwood Mac, Dreams by the Cranberries, What Will be will Be by the Green, Never be Like You by Flume… My style is versatile, fresh and contemporary. I am also down to learn your songs if the vibe is right.

I am also open to other projects, people that want some solid backup vocals for their recordings, dance groups needing a vocalist… I grew up doing musical theater, and I love to dance as well. Ideally, I’d love to find some like-minds to jam, record and gig with! I’m high vibe, positive, drama free and love working with other amazing, talented, interesting people.
