ABOUT

I'm a singer-songwriter based in the Buena Park area of Chicago. I'm hoping to join or form a band with a relatively commercial sound. I'm really into the modern pop sounds of artists like Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran, John Mayer, Charlie Puth, Maneskin, Quinn XCII, OneRepublic, DNCE (the list of popular male commercial pop artists goes on). Also down to occasionally experiment with more indie, alternative, pop rock, funk, blues, singer-songwriter, and contemporary country tones.

In terms of my experience, I spent a year in high school and four years in college performing and competing in co-ed a cappella groups, performed as a vocalist in an alternative/pop/rock band for a year where we played house parties, bars, and small concert venues, later moved to Denver, CO where I played guitar and sang in a three-person acoustic group playing at breweries, and lately, I've just been playing solo acoustic gigs (vocals and acoustic guitar) at coffee houses and small events.

Would love to find a drummer, bassist, guitarist, keyboardist, someone confident in mixing/producing would be great, confident with synth pads, electronic beats, would love to also collab with other vocalists in the area! Definitely a bonus if you are proficient in harmonies and an instrument.
