Hey I'm Britta and I'm 23, I love singing. I sing all types of music, from "oldies" like Billie Holiday, Frankie, Ella, Nina, the Mamas and the Papas, the Grateful dead, Baez or Dylan; tons of blues stuff like Clapton, Janis, Patsy Cline, Ray LaMontagne.. but I can also do modern stuff like Regina Spektor, the Dresden Dolls, Sufjan Stevens, Rilo Kiley, etc. I love the Gorillaz too. I play guitar and piano but only basically, as I taught myself. I am quick to pick up new songs though, and am always playing for my own pleasure. When I play I tend to do folk-ey acoustic-ey stuff because I play on my own. I'd like to get together with people who can actually play instruments so that I can focus on singing. Ideally we couple practice 2-3X per week and do one or two gigs a weekend. I live in SE CT so there are tons of different places to play. So.... that is about it. I am willing to play with anyone, as long as you aren't just a creep who is trying something ungentlemanly. I'd love to bring back all that old music (the first bunch I mentioned) so if you are a oldies/jazz/lounge band definitely shoot me an email. BYE!
