many thanks to paula radzynski and igor karaca for crucial musical schooling in piano and theory.
they did it all.
aside from playing piano and singing in the three abovementioned bands, i have a bit of cello on
crix savage's
debut album,
passions, which he recorded in the spring of 2006. the cello, whose name is dominique
lucas, doesn't get much other attention but i occasionally use him in bad experimental music that i do in my
spare time. i also did a bit of piano and harmony for jimmy dority in philadelphia, not to mention
that i have loaned my piano to
starving goliath
a kajillion times plus one, which really just means twice.
during the year i work on a bfa in
painting from
montserrat college of art, which is near boston, and
there are often solo shows in that area. i do a little radio show there called "spy broadcast" on
monday evenings, 89.5 fm, between 8 and 10, but unfortunately you can only get that station
if you're within a mile of the building.
feel very free to
email me your band's demo, your art, your fan art, or anything
you want to share with me and the band. we love it.
in addition to all the artistic stuff, i design and update the website. if you're a sweet sweet webdesigner
and you feel contemptuous, please remember that i am a beginner.
