I have decided to forgo writing this bio in the 3rd person. I will share with you what I know about myself as a musician- and you can do with this information what you like. ... What kind of music do I make? I will tell you what kind of music I ASPIRE to make. I like many different types of music, so I can only guess that the music I make will be very different styles (given that I am able to acquire all the instruments that I need). I want to make music that makes you smile in your car, and then laugh because you realized what made you smile. I also want to make music that makes you so emotional that your body feels heavy, and your eyes start involuntarily fill with liquid- not out of sadness. I also want to make music that you listen to over and over again trying to understand why it may have been written, and then eventually give up because you realize it was written so that each person that listened to it can associate it with something different. I want to make music that an 10 year old could listen to and appreciate, but a 65 year old could sit and listen to and not assume I'm a hooligan. There is a feeling I get when I listen to certain tunes, that I can only attempt to describe. It's not an emotion that has a name, just a stew of the ones that make you feel like you've been winded. Cinematic Orchestra- To Build A Home. Bon Iver- Skinny Love. Imogen Heap- Hide and Seek. Wonderwall (Ryan Adams version). These are a few of the songs that give me this feeling. Feel free to look these up if you haven't already heard them. I hope you will feel the way I feel when I listen to these. Although- then you may have indescribable urge to quit your current lifestyle to become a musician.
