about

This music comes from a time in the pandemic when I was feeling especially connected to the tradition and lineage of Jazz. With the future looking bleak I wanted to look back at the music that first drew me to jazz. I was inspired by the work of Bird and Diz, Lee Konitz and Warne Marsh, and other two horn groups. I wrote songs in the style of these groups and my band does an excellent job of highlighting these different influences and bringing a vibrant original style to the music. They treat my music with incredible honesty and bring such beauty to every note.


Thank you to everyone involved in this project, I am very grateful to have such an extraordinary community of musicians and artists to draw from. Thank you to my friends, Family, and my partner Chloe Reindl for their support of my music. I am honored to be supported by so many amazing people, and I hope you enjoy this music.
