Strongly influenced by progressive and techno artists of the 1970's and 80s, Glen worked in record stores, music shops, and studios for a few years before studying jazz piano at St.F.X. University. Half way into a music degree, Glen came to realization that he just wasn't all that into jazz. He changed majors and shifted his focus to English literature and philosophy. The result: rich, unique, sophisticated, meticulously crafted music.
