SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I am a classically trained musician and singer, but have also been involved as a lead vocalist and instrumentalist with various funk/RnB and Blues bands over the years doing both covers and originals. I am really interested in collaborating on some song-writing efforts to expand my horizons, and securing more gigs to share my music with as many people as possible! I am also available as a singer for more traditional gigs, including weddings, church services, and other special occasions. Finally, I am available as a back-up singer or fill in for bands/organizations faced with last-minute cancellations.
Coming from a musical family, I began piano lessons at age 3 (you do the math...), and did my first session work as a singer at age 6 for a children's album. I have done some studio work on and off since. Of course, I am open to more studio work as well! Still, my favorite work, whether on stage, in the studio, or in the classroom, is with original compositions.
NOTE: Currently lead singer for Austin blues band "Maxwell's Daemons" :)
NOTE2: You might be able to catch up with me at one of the Blues Jam sessions around the Austin, TX area!
