I am an extremely versatile singer, having been in many bands over the last 25+ years. I have a confident and humorous personality which suits me for fronting bands, however I also LOVE filling in the holes with harmony. The style of bands I've performed in are: Classic Rock; Country- Classic and Current; Jazz- singing loads of Standards; most recently an Accoustic 2 piece that played in restaurants with a song list of over 250 songs; and I even am a Sweet Adeline barbershop singer having performed in St. Petersberg Russia last summer singing the "baritone" part. On other words, I can sing the bells out of anything- croon it or belt it- and "sell" the song.
Having moved to the area rather recently, I am looking for either another accoutic duet situation to play private parties etc. or to get into a band with together/serious musicians with experience that want to have some fun, makes some $ and keep the groove alive- whatever genre!
