I have been playing keyboards since I was about ten years old. In high school, I played tenor and baritone saxophones, and in college I played contra bass and contra alto clarinets.

Since then, I've regularly gigged with a number of jazz and rock bands, none of which you will have probably ever heard.

• Madcap (1998–2000)
• St. Stephens Blues (1998–2007)
• The Johnny 5 (2005–2007)
• (The New) Frank Trompeter Quartet (2006– )
• HipPo (2007–2008)
• Joe Frew and the Brand New Bag (2007–2008 )
• Gypsy Collabo (2008–2009 )
• Pumpernickelbach (2010– )
