These days I'm primarily playing cello with a band of wild women, called Mercat, and following a successful stint at Pop Montreal, I've joined the ranks of Barkus Born! I have also been known to accompany the dear and luminous Zachary Cale. On special occasions, I can be found musically co-mingling with other kindred souls and neighbors like Andrew Tipton, The Sparrows, Nick Delgado and The Damned Torpedos, Jean Brassard, Tom Leach, and This Frontier Needs Heroes. In a previous lifetime, I was a member of upstate outfits knotworking and the kamikaze hearts. In a future lifetime, I will be a mermaid and a painter.

JUNE 30th, 6-8PM @ PAUL MORRIS GALLERY
