I picked this username when I was in high school. It's been eight years. DON'T JUDGE

There are two kinds of music: good music and the other kind.
Duke Ellington

I play with Entire Cities and Del Bel.

I also spent 3.5 years working at Toronto's Massey Hall, one of the best venues in the country, which accounted for a large number of awesome shows I got to see.

Aside from the above, I have played with the following (in various capacities):
Basement Arms
The Bicycles
Brian Joseph Davis
Bruce Peninsula
The Cheap Speakers
chrome and the ice queen
Clarinet Panic
a one-time duo called The Dark Days of Denim
the dropjoys

Henri Faberge and the Adorables
The Natural Shocks
The Slipper Orchestra (dwight schenk project)
Traplines
The Weather Station
as well as various York University ensembles (notably New Music Ensemble, Soul Collective, and jazz orchestra)
