Skewed and Such at Spectrum NYC

bandcamp Skewed and Such is my duo with percussionist and glockenspiel-specialist Trevor Saint. We have co-composed a number of pieces together and performed our material at venues including Spectrum NYC, Inova Gallery (Milwaukee), The Vault (Buffalo), PASIC Technology Day, and a number of university concert halls (Butler, Western Michigan, St Cloud State, Mansfield University, among others). We have also released 4 of our tunes on 2 separate EPs.

I perform primarily on laptop, using custom patches written in Max, though for our project Pillars of Decay, I sometimes join Trevor as a second percussionist. Composers Amanda Schoofs and Matt Sargent have also contributed to Pillars.
