Keisuke Hoashi. “Brilliant Teacher and Writer.”

Perhaps the greatest compliment ever received. Thanks for remembering me so memorably two years after our amazing collaboration, Ben Boecker!

New Song Live Now!

Hello world!

There’s a new song on my website, as promised, the final addition to the set of songs that will comprise my application to the BMI Musical Theater Writing Workshop in New York City.  It’s a comedy song, and it’s called “Reality TV.”

Originally, the song was written for a one-act musical at the New York Summer Music Festival.  It was a big collaboration, involving student writers, counselor writers, multiple pianists, a drummer, and the brilliant teacher and writer Keisuke Hoashi, still currently at NYSMF.  This song, however, was entirely my own, with original music and lyrics.

I took some time and updated the lyrics, since I’ve grown a bit along since writing it back 2 years ago, and I now am proud to present to you, “Reality TV,” sung by my super-awesome and double-talented friend Emily Marsland.  Also, this recording was recorded by Michael Wittels, another super-awesome and double-talented friend.
