My songwriting finds a home in various bands and studio projects, each with its own unique character. If there’s a common thread, it’s my love of strong melodies, weird chords and evocative lyrics that suggest multiple meanings simultaneously. It’s alright, I’m a Gemini.
Reaper On Red
Carla Cherry and I make human-meets-machine music inspired by minimalist art, occult mythologies and dystopian science fiction (a.k.a. current affairs).
Plastic Ants
Maximum chamber pop inspired by the Zombies, George Harrison and early David Bowie. Features ensemble performances by Guy Vanasse, John Curley and Julian Vanasse.
Hot Coma
A one-off studio collaboration with Bias Selector’s Adam Boose that suggests a ’70s singer-songwriter being assaulted by ’80s arcade games. In a great way.
