About Me

Hi, my name is Geordie MacKay and I'm from Ottawa, Ontario Canada. I've spent the last several years in Europe between Paris, France and Budapest, Hungary. In 2008, I attended RAC Digital Arts College in the Sound and Music Recording Program to better equip myself for working in the studio.As for my own music... I thank my parents for having a piano when I was growing up because that is where I discovered my passion for music. At 19 yrs. old I picked up my first guitar and awkwardly played my way through a severely broken humerus bone which occurred while I was snowboarding. I made a full recovery and ever since I have been playing my Takamine acoustic guitar. In the spring of 2006 I completed my first full length album entitled "Travelling Soul" and played many shows throughout Europe.I am continuing to write music and plan to help produce other artists' projects. If you are interested in working together, feel free to contact me and we'll see if I can be of assistance.
