Music
I have spent a fair amount of time singing in my life, but little of it is available to be shared. It might be time to fix that.
Lost in Gambier
Through high school and college I sang in barbershop quartets. In college, I sang with three… no, two amazing individuals. Maybe one? Well, I was pretty amazing, I’ll say that much. I’m sure the others would agree that they, not I, were the most amazing member of the quartet.
During the week between graduation and Dave’s wedding, we recorded an album. Self-titled Lost in Gambier, it was recorded in the WKCO studios over the course of two intense days by Dan Hayden, with Kate Webber providing (much welcomed) moral support. Although it was an intense time to undertake such a project, I’m very glad we did.
