About Me |
|
| I play baritone ukulele and sing. I put out my first album "My Favorite Place to Drown" on Smith Street/Acefu Records in April of 2006. And I went on tour opening for They Might Be Giants, and it's all been ridiculously fun. Here's the music video for "Summer's the Worst", a cautionary tale about the dangers of summer romance. Here's the music video for my song "The Beach Gets Cold" in which I play miniature golf. Also, I sometimes videotape my musician friends playing music in my apartment. Check out videos from The Apartment here . |
