Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. As a child, I played concerts with my brother, Shaun, and my cousin, Carmen at local coffee houses throughout Michigan, such as The Ark in Ann Arbor. I feel very grateful getting to create and share music at an early age.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Gary Versace, Kate McGarry, Keith Ganz, The Subject Tonight Is Love 1. Eventide - Singers Unlimited 2. Why Should The Fire Die - Nickel Creek, and 3. The Subject Tonight Is Love - Kate McGarry, Keith Ganz, and Gary Versace. I admire each project for its emotive instrumental and vocal textures and heartfelt lyrics.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Nigh Bethlehem” Alfred Burt is a jazz musician from the early 1900s who grew up in Michigan, braving the cold by writing and arranging songs. A collection of his carols became popular after he passed away. I wanted to carry on his legacy by reimagining one of them.
