ABOUT

I love my job as a photographer and teacher, but I'm desperately looking to get back into playing music. Full disclosure, I used to be big into musical theatre, and have performed in pretty much every musical you can think of (that may be a bit of an exaggeration, but I can’t deny the musical theatre nerd in me). I used to perform a bit in my 20s, mainly in a few piano and vocal duos, but never really pursued music because, well, life took over. Now I’m 40-something and desperate to start playing again. At this stage I’m just looking for someone to sing and play with, either covers or originals. I’m not looking to make music my full-time gig, but I'm open to meeting new people and exploring opportunities.

Let’s see, what else might you want to know? I live in Heidelberg with my partner, and my dogs Barbara and Christopher. Talking about myself in this level of detail, I can’t help but feel like this is starting to sound like a Tinder profile, so just to be clear, not looking for romance (unless you happen to be Zac Hanson, in which case my obsession with you is real, so if you ever decide to leave your wife and five children, hit me up).

Okay, that’s enough about me. Please tell me about yourself!
