About Me

{} MyGen Profile Generator Even though the grey wool tunics we had to wear in choir concerts were so itchy and ugly, and even though we sometimes had to stand for what seemed liked days behind the horn section at the Christmas concert, and even though I did all I could as a shy little one to avoid the eye contact of the choir director as to not have to solo, I am thankful for eight long years of weekly formation in The Vancouver Bach Choir. Thanks Mom.Once I got a bit less shy I found a love for singing, dancing and acting...behold the highschool musical. I never thought I'd be writing my own songs and standing on stage sharing them with a room full (hopefully) of people, but I am and I love it.Two years ago some Unsettlers and I got in our station wagon and drove to Montreal where they welcomed us with open arms, and I've been there ever since, singing with The Unsettlers (check out our debut album) and working on my solo project. This last summer I recorded my solo EP "Then We Learned to Dance" with a fantastic group of musicians. You can buy it here:
