2000:
THE HIGHWATERS "THE UNWANTED SOUNDS OF" The Highwaters "The Unwanted Sounds Of" EP: I sang very subtle, falsetto backing vocals on "Now I Am A Real Scientist". The Highwaters was one of my favorite indie bands of the 90's; the brainchild of composer/multi-instrumentalist Shay Lynch. The Highwaters played a lot of shows at the infamous "Charleston" on Bedford in Williamsburg (Brooklyn) owned at the time by "Benny" who served up a low-budget DIY light show for the bands with a flashlight and a color-wheel and then flicked the main lights on and off to make his own 'strobe'. Cheap beer and pizza, great music. Good times. "Now I Am A Real Scientist" (clip)by The Highwaters |
1998:
SHEZEROD EPONYMOUS EP Shezerod: short-lived rock trio, I wrote the songs, played guitar and sang. John Sutton was on drums and an amazing guitarist named Pat Bohan played bass. "Situation" by Shezerod |

HYPATIAN SKY Hypatian Sky: Named after the first notable female mathematician 'Hypatia of Alexandria' (400 BC). This was a trio featuring the drumming of John Sutton and bass guitar and violin by then 16 year-old musical madman Gavin Fallow. We had to fib about Gavin's age all the time to get him into shows, something probably trickier to do these days. |
