Artist description A small project focused on creating original tunes in the stylistic varieties of ska/reggae/dub/jazz. I try my best not to use the standardized chord progression used everywhere in Western music these days, but there are some instances I just can't resist. Currently the songs available are just rough sketches of tunes in the works, and plans are in the works to record a live rhythm section along with a small 2 or 3 piece horn ensemble.
