ABOUT
Classically trained (10+ years) pianist looking to do more studio session work as well as play some gigs with local musicians. I've been playing with bands since I was 13 or so and I'm a quick learner/writer who's good with music theory. Open to working with all genres like pop, rock, country, rnb, etc.
I currently play with a shoegaze/alt-rock band called Cat Larceny.
I'm also a singer/songwriter and attended SAE Institute Vancouver for a diploma in audio engineering and production.

Influences
Huge fan of Bill Evans but I don't listen to much jazz, I just like his style.
I listen to a lot of indie rock, alt-country, shoegaze, rnb, hip-hop... really open to working with anyone.
I tend to have a very "dreamy" sound and can do anything from simplistic synthy sounds to grand classically-inspired riffs.

EQUIPMENT

I also tend to gig with a stereo reverb pedal (Eventide Blackhole) and a stereo chorus pedal (Walrus Julianna) because it sounds sick.
