About Me

Hello. I play bass (upright and electric) with several groups around New York, including Ethan Lipton, Howard Fishman, Gretchen Witt, One Ring Zero, Blarvuster, Andrew Shapiro, and The Lonesome Trio. I have written music for theater productions as well as for films. I also sing and and perform my own music. About the tracks: I wrote IRIS for a short film of the same name by Adrian Muys. This features Maria Jeffers playing Cello and Vito Dieterle playing Soprano Saxophone. HIT IT, written and sung by ETHAN LIPTON (with myself, Eben Levy, and Vito playing and vocalizing), is from our new album, "Mr. Softy." Check Ethan's page for more!..
