As of (me writing this) now, I'm a 22 year old, recent college grad in Crystal Lake. I'm been playing guitar for 7 years, like to sing rock songs, and recorded some demos with a friend of mine over the past few years.
I'm self-taught on the piano and have been playing for nearly 20 years. I don't have a keyboard, unfortunately- just the real thing.
My guitar and amp need to be updated, but with proper mics I'd sound fine. I have a decent rock voice (or so I'm told). I can do straight singing and some more "rough" singing types as well. I also like to write songs of many different genres; I've done metal, symphonic metal, classic rock, alternative, ska, acoustic, etc. I'm a tenor and my singing range is about 2 octaves, from the second A (A2?) below middle C to about the A/B/C range above middle C.
For a few songs recorded with my friend (all of which were written by myself, as well as the bass and guitar parts performed by me), check out these links:

I'm currently also looking for a source of income, so my schedule might shift up a bit once I find something, though if you're looking for regular gigs or touring that can help me pay off my student loans, I'm up for that as well.
