hey there! Kevin here!

I’m the forest composer. I see things from the big-picture perspective. My music deals with orchestration, timbres of sound, and rhythmic nuances of gesture.  When you work with me, I will help you imagine and realize your musical ideas in the grand-scheme of what it could be. 

When your roots have taken shape and you begin to nurture your ideas, they can turn into a beautiful forest of possibilities.  

hi! it’s kincaid!

I’m the trees composer. My music is intricate, vulnerable, contrapuntal, and sensitive. When you study with me, you get to explore each creative decision and how it was made. You get to see the way the light filters through your canopy by studying each leaf.

Every detail matters when you’re seeing the trees within the forest.
