Lots of musicians have crazy lives so we're not here to say that life's adventures don't inspire us. But, we also love telling stories about love, friendship, grief, and all the complexities of human emotion. Those feelings that we just can't put in words; well, we paint those pictures in our lyrics.
what's the goal?
We produce pop music with some heavy R&B, jazz and alternative influences! That being said, we like to get creative. Since both of us have much wide musical experience, we've used everything from saxophones to 12-string guitars in the studio.
what inspires you?
Our goal is to share our musical gifts with the world to not only preserve the craft of songwriting, but also to show all audiences that "mainstream music" is art and can be beautiful and good.

I've played the violin and other orchestral instruments for about 15 years. I picked up the guitar, mandolin, and a couple others in high school and never looked back. Over the years, I've performed with every music group from country bands to some of the best Mariachi groups in Mexico. My love of poetry led me to songwriting and I've enjoyed learning more about the craft for the past few years!
Dr. Seuss wrote 'The Cat in the Hat' using only 236 different words....creativity is subtraction

I have played guitar for almost 10 years now, developing expertise in acoustic, electric, classical, and bass guitar. In 7th grade, I began collecting music gear for a home studio and never looked back. Since then I have picked up a little bit of piano, drums, and most recently saxophone. I work as a professional audio engineer and have been writing songs since I was a teenager.

Music Production
We use Abelton to record and produce not only our own music, but projects for others as well. We've recorded, mixed, and mastered quite a few of our personal tracks from this software. So, want to test our creativity?
From our love of poetry and creative writing came our passion for songwriting. We focus on using words to paint pictures, narrate stories, and convey distinct emotions to the listener. Want to learn more?
