SEEKING

Band to Join.

ABOUT

I've been singing my whole life; had my 1st band in 7th grade; worked professionally in Nashville before moving to the west coast, where I played the club circuit with a cover band called Second Wind. While in LA, I studied voice with Vivian Green and recorded original vocal demo tracks for J.J. Jackson and others. Returned to TN, graduated college, married and raised two kids, both musicians. I'm looking for 3 or 5 professional players who love the music and want to play weekend gigs, maybe more. Cover is fine if it's good; would love to explore original music. I can span 4 octaves vocally, have a strong background in vocal harmony and harmonic arrangement; I'm also a percussionist and have my own equipment. See below for a partial list of the people who influenced me. I'm available for rehearsal and performance.Call or Email if you have any questions; I'd love to talk to you.
