From 2004-2008, I attended The Thacher School in Ojai, California, where I discovered pop music and started to take my first baby steps towards discovering my voice. Here’s some material from that time:

Covers

An older student who was interested in becoming a recording engineer helped me record this cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”
 

I became a fan of Wilco at the same time.

I recorded a couple duets with my friend Alessandra.

Original Songs

 

 
I never finished that many songs, but at this time I started writing my own material, and experimenting with software tools.

 

Potential Banad

I also played in my first band in high school. Five of us, all contributing material, all great people.
