Bio:

People frequently ask me to explain to them why I wear a Bindi, what my religion is, or why my influence of style in general is inspired by the world market when my music doesn’t entirely correspond with that style.

Well, for starters, my hopes are that one day, my music WILL fully reflect my love of Indian, Japanese, Arabian, Spanish, and other forms of world influence. . . but in the meantime, while I only have myself to play and write with, I produce what flows through me naturally . . . which I guess you would call “singer-songwriter-acoustic-rock-pop.” But I find that limiting; to hold oneself in an image or genre that precludes you from exploring the vast array of endless musical styles and possibilities for exploration that are swirling around every new inspiration or old remembrance. I’m simply bursting with ideas and sonic visions that, on the level I imagine, can only be manifested with a collaborator who could truly allow me to bring my vision into a physical reality . . . so until then, hopefully you can see the correlation of my personal style within the content of my lyrics, which, if you listen closely, reveal my “religion” in many different forms . . . =)

As for my love of the Bindi, which I wear daily . . . on a very fundamental level for me, it is a physical representation of the unseen/inner makings of what connects us all as One. It helps me to not get so lost in the illusions of the world we see on the outside, by pointing me back to the Third Eye of Creation on the Inside . . . <:-} Whatever physical location I may find myself on the planet, I still have my inner-world protected, while at the same time, physically represented. I hope that explains enough for inquiring minds! If you'd like any more details, you can find them in my Extended Biography in my Blogs. And please keep checking in, especially if you’d like updates on my recordings and live performances! =P Thank you for taking the time to float into my world!!

Peaceful Blessings, Loving Respect, & Waves of Gratitude to you All!!!
