about

I’m thrilled, excited and emotional about the release of my new album on Bandcamp, Plant Music in Nature: Live Sessions with Plants!

From May to December, 2022, I set out to co-create songs with local plants in and around Ottawa, Ontario, using modular synthesizers.
What resulted was not just eight songs, but a meditative exploration of my relationship with nature. So much of the project required spontaneity, intuition and leaps of faith. Mother Nature reciprocated generously!

Head over to Bandcamp to listen for free and buy the album if you want to support my music. Videos of the performances on location are on my YouTube channel. Links in bio.

I’d like to thank the following people and organizations:

The Canada Council for the Arts for their generous support to make this project possible.

Shefilms.ca for her incredible cinematography and generous support throughout.

My family, friends, listeners and colleagues who have cheered us on and supported us.

My incredible plant collaborators who exceeded my highest expectations in this co-creative project.

This project will forever hold a special place in my life with all the many incredible moments, challenges and unexpected gifts along the way. I feel grateful for what it has offered me in every dimensions of my being. I hope it will inspire you to explore your relationship with nature, with others and everything in between.
