I frequently perform my written work at open mics and other venues. Here's a recent example, performing Wisteria Blue:
There's also an audio recording of that same piece as part of the Songs & Sounds of Tallahassee event at Blue Tavern last summer. Tavern owner Carrie Hamby describes it thus: "With its lyrical dread and absurd imagery, Wisteria walks a tightrope between botanical comedy and something heavier. Like the vine itself, the poem slips between satire and prophecy, hits on the domestic and the wild, and draws a line between creation and decay."
And another, Float, at the same venue:
In 2025, I finally did my first guitar-and-singin' gigs at a local open mic. One day I'll do more with that and, I hope, write some originals.
I've done many theatrical and vocal performances in musical theatre and choral groups in the past, none of which—for better or worse—were documented for posterity. You'll have to trust me on this one.
