ABOUT

Hi, I'm Caleb. I recently moved to San Francisco from San Diego. I was in a Hip Hop/Rock band in San Diego and I'm looking to start up a project in the Bay Area. I was the lead vocalist (rapper) for my former band and also did most of the managing and booking. We were a committed project and gigged and toured extensively. If at all possible, I would like to continue on that same path. Though I’m used to being the lead person in the band, I am very easy going and don’t have “lead singer syndrome” haha. I’d like to jam out with likewise musicians to see if we have chemistry in the studio.

I’d like to start a high energy project that uses Hip Hop as the base, but also includes influences from the Rock and Electro world. I’d also like to try using live sampling and synths on stage. A drummer is a MUST!!! Hip Hop with a live percussionist can’t go wrong!

You can check out some of my videos with me and my former band at ://./theconcretecrew so to get an idea of what I can bring to the table. Btw, my old keyboardist from the former band is also living in SF now. I'm sure I can bring her along for a jam session as well.
