I am a very talented keyboardist and an excellent singer. I have been in numerous successful band and spent 26 years in the U.S. Navy performing all over the world including 3 USO tours. I have an extensive vocal range and sing anything from Journey to Josh Turner. I use Yamaha and Beringer gear and I like to ensure sound quailty a neccessity. I long to sing lead but I also bring a good background in creating harmonies. A good vocal quality brings out the best in music and there are not a lot of bands that like to create 3,4 or even 5 part harmonies.
