About Me

I started this acoustic project shortly after I moved to Ottawa playing my first show at end hits Dec. 6 2006 and have played many more since. I've been lucky enough to open for Tim Barry (avail) Kris Roe (the ataris) and Nikola Sarcevic (millencolin) when each of them passed through town. In the summer of 2008 I went on a tour across the United States and Canada. When I'm in school I try and play as many shows as possible around Ottawa and can be seen during the school year playing at La Maison near Ottawa U Campus every other wed night. This past June I did a two and a half week tour of the Eastern and Midwestern United States with The Ghostwrite. In July I played the largest show I have played to date at the Ottawa Bluesfest and then did more touring in BC, Ontario and Quebec. I have just repressed 100 copies of all my prior music onto one cd, when they are gone they are gone. A new full length should be out in the spring/summer 2010 as well as a possible split cd with my friends in New York Taxi and the Ghostwrite.If you would like a cd please message me on here or email [email protected] and I will make that happen.Booking: [email protected]
