CURRENT MISSION: Making music

ABOUT ME:

Hello people of the world!

I make music and tour across this fine world sharing it with people. It has taken me on some amazing adventures so far, and I simply cannot wait to have more. Traveling makes me come alive, let's have some adventures together!

Some info on my music - I'm primarily a solo act, and I play under the name "Sofa City Sweetheart." My music sounds like a blend between The Kinks and Elliott Smith. You can listen to it here if you liked that previous sentence: http://sofacitysweetheart.com

I've also gotten heavily involved with my local Lindy Hop community here in Los Angeles. I can't wait to dance internationally. If you are a swing dancer, or want to learn how to swing dance, come dance with me!

Basically, if you like music, video games, film, comedy, art, or Lindy Hop, we're going to get on swell!

PHILOSOPHY

"Does this path have heart?"
