biographical info
Born in Nelson, B.C.
Grew up in Dawson Creek, B.C.!! (not the T.V. show!)
Studied music in Nanaimo, B.C. for 2 years and then
moved to Montreal, Qc. in '93 where I attended McGill
for music. I graduated with a Bachelors in Jazz Performance
4 years ago. Since that time I have been
writing, performing, and arranging my own music
as well as singing jazz on the local scene. I
will be releasing my second independant CD
by the fall as well as concentrating on my next
project, funded by the Quebec Council of Arts.
It will involve combining organic with electronic
sounds ie. live strings with computer/DJ plus
rhythm section and a big live performance
at the end.
Wish me luck!!
Now it's out to a cabin for a month to write!
Update.-April, '03.Since last year I've appeared on CBC's Great Canadian Music Dream TV contest, recorded for CBC Jazz Beat, had my music played on Richardson's Round-Up and Daybreak North in BC.
