Im a formally trained musician coming from a family of professional as well as non professional musicians my life has always been surrounded by music.I attended Berklee college of music,studied under opera singer John Price,and took organ and piano lessons on and off for years.
Im a lead singer front man who has fronted many metal and hard rock bands from chicago to florida and .Im a strong tenor
I play keyboards and guitar but use them as writing tools more then anything else.Although ive been hired by numerous bands to play keys in the past.Ive spent hundreds of hours in recording studios post and production,and concider my self well versed behind the mixing console.
I would love to perform again in the right situation.
It would Have to be a talented hard rocking band with stage presense that wants to put on a show.Inspiration to write original material as well as do covers is critical for me to stay inspired within a lineup.Im still trying to write that one hit song.
Im currently writing demos for a new record.
