Biography
My musical influences are The Beatles, Peter Gabriel, The Police, Stevie Wonder, XTC, and numerous artists on Peter Gabriel's Real World label.
My spiritual influences are many. While I was raised as a Roman Catholic and am currently exploring Buddhism, I've walked many other paths along the way and am grateful for what each has taught me, as all roads lead home.
I believe that my purpose in this life is to inspire and heal through the creation and performance of my music. My debut CD, “Little By Little”, released in March of 2007, is a powerful realization of my purpose, fully intertwining my two passions of music and spirituality.
In an effort to build relationships and get my music out into the world, I attend and perform at as many music conferences and events as I can. (In March, I performed at the Affiliated New Thought Network Conference in Phoenix, AZ, and in August, I'll be performing in the Circle Of Love Gathering in Kelowna, BC.) As a direct result of these experiences, I'm now beginning to perform at House Concerts (www.concertsinyourhome.com), Kirtans (devotional chanting nights) and at New Thought churches in both Canada and the U.S. (including Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Seattle, Phoenix and Kansas City).
