  • Bio

    I have been writing and recording dreamy little acoustic songs in semi-contented obscurity for years. In 2001, at the urging of friends, I pulled together some of those tunes and released a first CD, "Wake of the Moon." To my shock, the CD generated a little internet buzz and, over the next few years, I distributed nearly all of the first run of 1000 copies. After releasing a second CD, "Everything Takes Forever" in 2007, the buzz grew a little louder, with a "Top Editor's Pick" from CD Baby ("simply put, if you only buy one folk or rock album this month, this should be it") and several flim and TV placements (Hall Pass, One Tree Hill, Ghost Whisperer, Being Human). A new album, "The Magical Adventures of Down" is due out in late spring/early summer 2011.
