About Me

L'Esprit D'Escalier means, literally, "the wit of the staircase." It's meant to describe the moment when you suddenly think of the perfect witty comeback or snappy one-liner - just after you leave the room. The 5-track EP, produced by Juno winner Haydain Neale, frontman of the R&B staple jacksoul and unparalleled co-writer and producer extraordinaire (he's nifty), is available wherever I am. For information on Haydain's progress, please visit www.jacksoul.com, and boost his spirits by sending him an email at [email protected].

I'm a singer/songwriter in downtown Toronto. I write pop tunes that are catchy and short and sometimes funny, if I'm lucky. You should be prepared for songs about: professional wrestlers and the women who love them; the thin line between love and a restraining order; destruction of personal property; faux-psychic scam artists; violent death; and a repeating theme of indignant self-assertion, usually too late for confrontation (see album title above).
