Introduction Greetings, brothers and sisters. Like most of you reading this, I'm a fan of music. I spend most of my time researching, investigating, making, and exploring music. Since 2004, my concert and album reviews, essays, and columns have appeared in publications such as Tiny Mix Tapes, PopMatters, Exclaim!, and I've been a Polaris Music Prize juror since 2010. I will graduate with a BFA in music from the Contemporary Arts program at Simon Fraser University in October of 2011. I am happy to live in East Vancouver with my sketchy but sweet cat Isobel Dewsabelski.
