About
(The songs above are just vocals from Sinatra's albums)
I am mainly looking to sing professionally, but of course start small in a jazz-style band locally or wherever it may take me; but of course bring in a modern twist. I can write lyrics, but cannot write or read music (I have taken classes, but I just can't grasp it) so far I have personally written 8-10 songs. Frank Sinatra is by far my favorite out of thousands of jazz styles I listen too, and would like to try and mimic and improve it.
I am only 20 currently, and have been singing seriously for almost eight months now. Please do not judge me before hand because of my age, I try to stay professional at all times, and I also know when to goof around.
Also, currently I am working on several self-authored books on the side, but I would like to get the singing started as soon as possible whether it be for a recording company or local band.
Influences
Frank Sinatra, Nancy Sinatra, Frank S. Jr., Jace Everett, Ludovico Einaudi, Michael Buble, Dean Martin, Tony Bennette, Norah Jones, Shivaree, Amy Winehouse, Kamelot(Out of place, but one of my favourite modern-bands).
