SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT! Oct 15-16th I'm back at the Footbridge Theatre (USYD) for the 2nd year @sydneycon.mt musical with this amazing band!! Last show for the year! Tix in bio (the musical reveal is there too) This one is extra special because I'm going to be on stage in costume so you can see all the crazy doubling swaps. It is special milestone of 2 years into learning this niche skill. Also my dear friend @indeed_its_gabe is a lead and I wouldn't have started this journey if he didn't ask me to play Merrily We Roll Along last year so special thanks to him! Up to this point in my journey, this is definitely the show you want to see. It has been a lot of work and mistakes to get here but the support and memories of many teachers and musicians has made it so worth it!! Hope to see you there! Check out the other gigs I have in October too 🤗 SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT! Oct 15-16th I'm back at the Footbridge Theatre (USYD) for the 2nd year @sydneycon.mt musical with this amazing band!!

Back home in Montreal after an intense 3 weeks in Banff, bookended by a couple road trips 🚙 between Alberta and the west coast. I had an amazing time, met some sweet people and learned a lot. The music was pretty good too. Looking forward to a couple days of doing absolutely nothing 🛌 and then diving back in. Let’s hang! 🚀
