The Mistaken Identity project took over 3 years to make being a compilation of songs very dear to me. This project features some classics from my old band 'Disparity' as well as new material inspired by the many twists and turns from the last 3 years. All songs have an elements of finding that place of belonging which creates an element of continuity under the title 'Mistake Identity'. 

I would also like to thank all the people who gave up their time and talents over the course of this very long project to make it a reality. Thank you to Marly from Alchemix Studios west end for being the greatest studio engineer I have had the privilege to work with and his enduring patients throughout the recording processes. Thank you to drummer Sarah Bolte for spending hours quickly learning and writing beats for the songs and being a great musical companion through not only this project but also the band Disparity. Thank you to bassists Ellen Hedwig and Geoff Donohue for their 4 string magic. Ellen for keeping me in line since the founding of Disparity back in high school and Geoff for years of support not only in this project but also as my time as a music tutor at Arties Music Max. Thank you to Vocalists Tom Ranclaud and Matt Dennett. Tom, another member of Disparity, writing partner and truly one of the best friends I could ever ask for, a real inspiration for how I see music today. Also special thank you to my fiancee Paige who not only supported me in my music but has also been the inspiration for a few of the songs, particularly 'Lost on a Wave'. Finally a big thank you to all those who have supported me through my life to get me this far. Could not imagine my life or music without you.
