I was born in 1985. My oldest memory of writing songs coincides with a curiosity in my family’s piano and the music lessons that my older brother and sister were taking. I was 5 or 6 years old, and I wanted to tell a story through sound by pressing down different keys on the piano (read: banging around on the piano) to express what I felt were the colors and emotions of that story. This activity was highly unstructured, and without a doubt, unpleasant to listen to (sorry, Mom!). Thirty years later, I’m still chasing that curiosity and desire to express myself and my personal narrative through musical storytelling.
When I was 14 years old, I fell deeply in love for the first time, and I also fell in love with pop music. One of these two loves was unrequited, and the other was a salve for that wound. I’ll let you figure out which is which. I remember my excitement the first time I could really hear and pick out the bass line in a pop song, the same way I remember how my heart fell into my stomach when my first love burst into a room. Music and romance collided into a single, indistinguishable passion. I became obsessed with how sound - not just lyrics or harmony - could evoke particular feelings, like the melancholy of an electric guitar delay or the quirky wonder of unexpected textures such as acoustic guitar layered over electronic drums.
