I’m in the newspaper! I love this hilarious quote - “ambient music is totally going mainstream” hahaha
This is a lovely article, it perfectly encapsulates how I feel about the music I make and what I’m excited for in the coming year. It’s in print in the Saturday @TorontoStar
My new song ‘On Air’ is out today. I hope yours ears adore it!
This is the first single from my new album Ambient Ensemble.
Recorded in a church, I played the piano, slowed it to half-speed, added some classic synths and overdubbed a small chamber ensemble. Et voila, ambient!
It’s my birthday, 36 today! I’m gonna smile, look to the light, open my optimistic eyes and let gratitude flow freely. That’s my game plan this year. Lots of love to my friends, my family, and honestly, everyone on earth.

I’m not sure if it’s a faux pas to actually promote one’s music here or it’s mostly one-liners but if you’re with me on this here’s a well written article with the music video for the song I’m currently promoting/proud to share.

Such excitement! New song ‘Way Inside’ from my album with Alexia Avina. We made this music in the Rocky Mountains writing a million songs all day everyday. It was beautiful but also honestly a bit intense. I think this song captures the crazy creative flow we were feeling.
Big thanks to @Under_Radar_Mag premiering the song and lots of love to Hugo Bernier for taking this photo AND making a magical music video, it’s perfect
Thanks for the support! To offer a dose of reality, this was my third time applying for the same project. If anyone has questions I’m always happy to share my experience with grant applications.
