ABOUT

I've established a set of sounds and generally believe in music as a first language. I'm less about how you say it, so long as what you say is worth hearing. My aspirations include music that promotes understanding and prompts thought...as well as effective communication with a listener.

My preferences are to work behind the scenes, backing vocals and encompassing sounds to exhibit female vocals tends to be my strong point.
