~Sound Beyond Borders~

Every instrument has an origin story. Sometimes these stories are pretty well-documented, and other times we are left to fill in the blanks for ourselves. In fact, academic studies such as organology exist for that purpose. The same is true for the sound that comes out of those instruments. Ethnomusicology exists for that purpose. And as beautiful as it is to be able to discover and study all of the ways in which a particular sound, or musical framework (theory) relate to their culture or country of origin: what is equally as beautiful, to me, is to be able to take a particular sound, and explore how it can relate to anybody from any culture.

Music is important for different people at different times in different ways. I'm available for intimate events: proposals, private weddings, other ceremonies, small gatherings, and yes, even funerals.~

I am based in Richmond, VA (US), but willing to travel if travel expenses are covered.

Working on a song/album and you want something different that isn't digital? I also take studio musician inquiries!
