PERFORMANCE
I
perform as a singer-songwriter. You can hear samples
of my music on my MySpace
page. You can also buy songs from
my six-track EP on iTunes.
(Thanks to one little word in the song "Practice,"
the whole EP is listed as Explicit, but what are
you gonna do?)
In
Chicago, I've performed as an opening act for
Tantalus Theatre and Thunder & Lightning Ensemble,
and in Colonel Ritter's Spectacular Hour of Wonderment.
I've also accompanied private parties and one
incredibly sweet marriage proposal. (She said
yes.)
To be honest, the
lines between music, writing, and performance
get somewhat blurry for me. I have written and
arranged songs for shows in which I was acting:
these things are tough to classify.
SCORING
AND ARRANGEMENT
I've written or arranged songs for these shows.
(If you're interested in my work in this area,
you may also want to check out the information
on Practical Anatomy,
for which I wrote book, lyrics, and (with
Ethan Balis) score.)
