Here’s me.
As an artist I’m a singer, pianist, arranger, producer, composer, performing and recording artist, and musical director. I’m a specialist in improvisation. My lyrics, which come as improvisations, focus on themes of human depth, paradigm shift, the intimacy and bigger picture of our times: folk/soul/jazz, acoustic, multi-instrumental, join-in music with singers improvising lush and wild harmonies.
As a teacher I help people bring out their full voices, develop their chops (musicianship), express themselves, connect and heal, and become great Collaborative Vocal Improvisers.
Here are my summarised biographies for:
