-I am a singer/songwriter living and working in Vancouver, BC. For close to 25 years I've played guitar, but it wasn't until the last year and a half ago that music became my main focus and I've been consistently writing, recording, and playing live when I can ever since. Maybe it sounds pretentious, but I write how I'm feeling at the time- This city and the people in it providing inspiration, past and current experiences finding an outlet. This is my heart and it's on my sleeve.
-My main guitar (which I named "Aubrey") is a Gibson Epiphone PR350S. I bought it off of a guy from Lubbock, Texas. Very cool.
-All of my songs are recorded straight into GarageBand using a Blue Snowball USB mic.
-"Pink Moon" by Nick Drake is probably the best album that I own. The next best would be PJ Harvey's "White Chalk"... and then just about anything by Porcupine Tree.
