Artist History After concluding my musical apprenticeship under the accomplished concert kazooist, Vajy Johnson, I continued on as his understudy in the Twin Cities Philharmonic Kazoo Ensemble. During this time, I also moonlighted in the clandestine Body Soundists for Corporate Death Collective, in which I was the first chair Thigh-slapper and a backing Whistlist. The other members of the BS4CDC always used to tease my Mom by calling her a "painting". That wasn't cool, so I left the group and went on to bigger and better things, including the Bowdoin College campus supergroups, Surreal and the Lovely Lads, and my current project, Heavy Member Participation

Group Members Only those of the heavy persuasion, please.
