WACSAC

Bio:

See my awesome website for current news, or visit my page on Facebook for regular updates and to do fan stuff like comments and pictures.

The Williamsport Area Community Symphony and Chorale, aka WACSAC, started in Cambridge, MA in 1994 as a side project from my old band, Fat Day. I composed string quartets and sundry classical pieces and had my hipster friends play them.

All these years passed, I moved to Chicago and Fat Day broke up. Now, as then, I write classical music with a naive grace and unabashed love of beautiful melodies and harmonies. Like eating a delicious home-cooked meal, or wearing a sweater knitted by a loved one. Or a bath. ..
