About Me

CURRENT MISSION

connecting through music

ABOUT ME

Music, music, music, pretty much sums it up. I'm a singer/songwriter cellist/violinist and have some music online if you care to listen. http://wesswing.com/music

I've been on the road, playing concerts often arranged through couchsurfing for a few years now.

PHILOSOPHY

Expression through music.
