Here's the video to my latest album, Pele's Fire – A Volcanic Symphony for Peace. Filmed by Tim Freeman, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hawai’i Hilo. What an adventure, composing live on the edge of a volcano 🌋 #volcano #eruption #kilauea #ambient #electricviolin #peace

As an electric violinist, I’ve always been chasing the perfect sound. I never liked the super compressed flat/sterile “electric violin” sound, but I enjoy the benefits of not running into feedback issues on large/loud stages. I’m currently reworking my pedalboard. Check out my Substack!
