ABOUT

I'm a fairly good guitarist, with experience playing rock, blues, and all kinds of indie rock stuff, but at the moment I'm super interested in making some nice indie folk/singer songwriter stuff. I'm talking Bon Iver (especially his earlier stuff), Sufjan Stevens, Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker etc, so pretty chill/melancholy stuff. But otherwise I'm very keen to experiment with whatever works, and if we jam and find a different sound then that's great too!

I love the process of songwriting, and always trying to get better at music recording and production (from my little home studio setup). I have tried singing in front of others, but I am keen to practice and learn that too! However if you're a singer or musician and you have an interest in this type of thing then let's jam and see if we click creatively!

I would ultimately be aiming for a fairly legit project, with the goal of playing shows and making records.
