Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. As a child, I played classical piano, and loved the music of Beethoven and Debussy. As a teen I studied jazz piano and also loved British prog rock bands like Genesis. My career includes composing for video games and film and now the healing arts.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? John Barry, Out of Africa ((Soundtrack from the Motion Picture)) (Soundtrack from the Motion Picture) Miles Davis, Kind of Blue Snarky Puppy, Immigrance Kind of Blue defines modern jazz for me. The album is so way ahead of its time, filled with soul spontaneity. Snarky Puppy shows us next level jazz, crazy killer music. Out of Africa touched my heart and mind, influencing my own style of writing.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Solitude” Solitude is a favorite original solo piano piece on my first album HARBOUR. It expresses the longing and quiet we all are looking for in our busy lives. My albums are reflective and calming and I hope they bring you to a place of peace and healing.
