Garshar aka Songbird + Musician in Dallas, TX

SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm a vocalist that loves all kinds of real music. My style is more Neo-Soul/Contemporary/Alternative/R&B/Rap,and Gospel; kinda like a little bit of The Black Eyed Peas, Fugees, Michelle Williams (who I just found out had a real nice Neo-Soul/Contemp/Gospel album), The Roots, India Arie, Erykah Badu, Sara Bareilles, Leona Lewis, with a soft rock feel to it. I love versatility and want different types of music on an album. I just want my very own band. Love the feel of live real music. It makes me open up more. I've performed for, opened up for, and with artists such as Erykah Badu, Angie Stone, The Disciples of Creation,a new upcoming R & B artist Sammy aka Hampton from Dallas, Tx. (dat's my boy with the coldest voice),another upcoming artist with mad skills is Deon from Dallas who's on the duet with me (much love for him), and Josh from Chicago, a new upcoming gospel singer (one of the most hummblest people and musical talents ever). I also do plays. Right now I'm in a play by Ms. Hazel Baker called, "Lord, Please Don't Pass Me By". The playgroup is featured in my pictures below. I'm on the very left end, sitting. I have much respect 4 real and true artist everywhere. We are all blessed with unique talents and versatilities to offer the world and to give back to God, espeacially.
