About Me

CURRENT MISSION

play music all over the world - create musical portraits for everyone who wants one...

ABOUT ME

I have spent the last three and a half years mostly on the road, performing in people's living rooms, at yoga centers and churches. A lot of couch surfing all over the country. I am aiming to settle in the Bay Area, starting beginning of February, 2014. Will be doing more couch surfing to get a better feel for the city and it's surroundings, and doing some street performing while I am at it. Biggest aim is to gather a group of musicians to bring my music to a wider audience.

PHILOSOPHY

Embracing the paradox of being human and feeling the truth of something larger than ourselves....
