About Me

Here's a little about myself... I started classical piano lessons at the early age of 4. The main reason for that was that my parents carried the dream of me playing in church one day, which I did, but not quite as long as they had wished. (By the way my dad is a minister). So I continued on with my piano lessons until the age of 15 when I decided it was over. I wanted to do my own thing and that was the end of it. Singing had always been part of me so I started writing and composing, going as far as possible of the classical music. I came out with my first song which was called Friend of Sin. I don't have to tell you that my dad was not too proud of me at that moment. I started playing in bands as the singer and went on playing in bars for a while. That is until I decided to go study classical singing at college in Quebec city.Yeah,yeah. I said classical. That didn't last too long. I formed a band with a couple of guys from school and it was much more fun playing rock-and-roll all night. After a year i decided to move to Montreal, the big city..I then recorded two songs (junkie,Ciao Ciao) on a friends album and then went on tour with him for almost 2 years. Those were great moments and quite some fun. That's when I met those great musicians who played on my demo, which was recorded live, in 2003. So that brings me to say, hope you enjoy my music. It is simple and honest. It reveals alot about who I am and my most inner feelings.
