Bio

Hello! I am a music teacher, wildlife biologist, and incessant songwriter. I've lived and worked in several countries (e.g., India, Israel, Panama, Venezuela, Indonesia), studying the evolution of social behavior and communication in birds and other amazing creatures. I bring an instrument everywhere I go; the music is like a faucet, sometimes pouring out, and sometimes slowly dripping...

I released an album called Bird Songs a couple years ago - written and recorded in 7 countries, and all about birdwatching, conservation of wild spaces, and life in the outdoors. Check it out! http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/matthewhalley

You'll likely hear several different instruments at play in these FAWM tracks. My bedroom seems to be overflowing with them at the moment! This is my first FAWM - I totally love the concept and am psyched to join in the fun!!

Welcome to FAWM 2012 and FAWM in general. I'm G Slade, resident hip hop/rap/synth pop guy. I'll be doing more listening than writing this month, so I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to contribute this year.

Good luck in Feb!
