ABOUT ME

My name is Huw Webb, I've been playing drums since I was 8 and when I grow up I want to be a jazz musician. I love to cook an bake.I'm a vegan and I freaking love vegetables. Wanna feed the world for free. I write music an make art that I guess is indeterminate performance, but there's scores so not quite improvisation. Oh man collaboration makes me swoon and I'm always up for making stuff with peeps. My world changed the first time I heard Charles Ives. I like comics and geeking out with people. I love felt tips. I love laughing pretty much best of everything ever.

PHILOSOPHY

I like making stuff that makes people smile

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walked up the Puy de Sancy and the Puy de Dome... that was pretty tops
It might sound trite but every thing's amazing when you get down to it.
I feel like I'm in a permanent state of wonder if I actually stop to think about stuff and look around me... oh man I really hope I don't sound like ICP
