Thank you @withmichellekim for beautifully capturing our "Songs Without Voices" concert back in October. She really caught us in our element — it’s a really sweet look at our group 🤍 #cello #livemusic #cellistsofinstagram #songswithoutvoices #musicianlife

Our new album, A Light that Lingers, is out now 🕊️ This project was born from the unrepeatable. Over a series of late afternoons, we stepped into the studio to capture moments in real time—Ian improvising on cello while Tristan shaped and looped the sounds as they unfolded. We worked with a "first pass" philosophy: whatever was captured became the soul of the piece. We refined things lightly, but we never tried to recreate that initial spark. These recordings are honest documents of those hours as they were.

“Elegy” is out now ✨

The second single from my improvisational project with the excellent Tristan de Liège.

Each piece was recorded in a single session—cello, loops, and whatever the moment gave us. Over time, those sessions slowly became a full album, coming soon.

Thank you @channingross for the incredible cinematography.

Had a really meaningful conversation with Ronny Rose for Our Talks, his interview series for All We Do Is Make.
 We dug into my musical roots, creative process, and what I’m up to these days.
 Ronny’s a generous listener and artist — I’m grateful for the exchange. 
Full convo on Substack — link in bio.
