Made by Dr. Light  is the alter ego project of artist and musician Jes Burgess. 
Bright, Versatile, and Peculiar are only a few descriptions to describe the performances of Made by Dr. Light.  Multiple-choice formats in live sets keep the crowd guessing, and make them easy to be enjoyed by all audiences.

Heavily influenced by new wave, lofi, chiptunes, Capcom, pop, and baroque music, Made by Dr. Light creates a new genre on its own.

Jes Burgess, known as “Made by Dr light” in these recordings, has shared the deep pockets of her imagination through synthesizers, pitch-altered vocals, and haunting beats all built on reflection on both triumph and traumas.

At one time her music described as “Dracula stuck in a Tron Grid”, her sound has blossomed since then, first starting out playing vgm cover music, and eventually evolving into a love for recording and synthesizers.  

Twin Peaks, Fire Walk with Me, definitely made its impact as a source of inspiration, as heard in heavy uses of cloudy reverb, curtains of pad synths, and cryptic phrasing often in surreal settings.   Her full length album “Test Pilot” (2017), focuses on the difficulties of relocation, feeling lost, and reflecting the bad times, also relies on some Twin Peaks references of her own metaphorical Black Lodge, seeing one’s self in dreams.    
Jes uses the title Made by Dr Light for archived pieces, and as an overarching theme for her work.  
Jes also teaches cello and has an extensive resume of past performances as a ‘hired gun’ in both classical and contemporary music.  

Made by Dr Light is an artist, cellist, and full time fly on the wall to exceptional and traumatic experiences.

I play the parts using combinations of four guitars and an electric bass: Gibson L5, Fender Telecaster, classical nylon from a luthier named Nakade, steel-string acoustic from a luthier named Sauve, and a Fender Jazz Bass.

If I didn't write the tune, I didn't make it available for download -- I want to respect intellectual property.  

I'm also active in photography.  The link to my photos is tomhealy.smugmug.com.  

I’ve had the good fortune to study in the past with some excellent teachers: Don Mock (one of the original Guitar Institute of Technology, GIT, instructors); Jay Roberts (son of GIT founder Howard Roberts; GIT is now the Musicians Institute in LA); and, Rich Falco (Rich joined the music faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 1979; Director of Jazz Studies.).

And, I've been able to attend some terrific clinics from guitar masters such as: Jim Hall, Pat Martino, John Schofield, Larry Coryell, Ulf Wakenius, Howard Alden, Frank Vignola, John Pisano, John Pizzarelli, Vic Juris, Corey Christiansen, Kevin Eubanks, and others.
