ABOUT

Odd gal living in Calgary area who wants to start up a project. I have oodles of material, and would love to hear yours, too! Looking to make folky/alternative/electronic music.

I don't read music, I can read guitar tablature but tend to play most things by ear, same goes for the vocals (I love love love harmonies/harmonizing). While I've mainly been playing my acoustic lately (lots of finger-picking), I'm just as in love with playing the electric guitar, and would probably start playing it more if I was to start playing music with other people again.

I was with a successful alt rock band in Edmonton in 2012, but ended up moving away. We toured across Canada all the way to Toronto, so I have some gig and tour experience, and love good gear.
