Solo efforts over the years have surfaced as No Any Walls and Little Quick Heart. Founding member of Virginia-based bands Eternal Summers, Mommies, Disappearers' Collective, and a contributing member to Dark Hills and Viola's Heartful. Featured along with his family and farm in the film Some Beasts.
