CURRENT MISSION

To be as honest as I can while making music. To eat. Everything.

ABOUT ME

I write music: for musical theater, for records, for dance (which is a bit like scoring a film, except it's real, and you can smell the people) I live in Brooklyn New York.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only just joined, and stayed in Vienna with the most lovely couple imaginable; charming, warm, generous, young artists who cooked up a storm and showed us around the city. Then when the younger sister of one of our hosts came to New York, I hung out with her. Then my host himself came for a week. I'm excited to continue on this path of good folks...

音乐、电影和书籍

Grapes of Wrath. "Max Perkins, Editor of Genius." Perkins was Hemingway's editor, Fitzgerald's editor. Fascinating guy.
Tobias Wolff's "This Boy's Life" and "Old School" are two recent favorites.
