SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
This bio marks a return to the performance-art world where fronting “boy bands” began, aged 8, along with training and, later, apprenticing for decades under keyboard prodigy and renowned vocal coach, Richard Warne.
By 17, performance art was a may having toured Europe twice, 60+ live gigs, including two full sessions at Notre Dam cathedral where 10,000 tourists suddenly stood silent in conjoined reverence for the moment. Since, as a technologist, have worked building and learning from a well-spring of immersive experiences guiding my heart and hands, today, and all gained from engaging with WONDERFUL humans in 35 countries on five continents, and writing/lecturing and leading self-perpetuating constituencies built of multi-national audiences comprised of Fortune 500 professionals, computer scientists and academia, (i.e., engaging target audiences replete with true patrons). Highly honed writing/communication/poetry/lyrics/songwriting skills and interpretive skill sets which are now applied in all endeavors to create passionate, exhilarating performance art pieces (multi-tasking, multi-modality, multi-ethnicity, multi-cultural, etc.).
Eclectic vocal, writing, musical and performance styles where lifelong influences reflect 40+ years as a working professional. With Breadth, and the very Breath of Life, audiences react extremely positively to performances demonstrating numerous original pieces and most challenging vocal works from Robin Trower (anything off Bridge of Sighs) and Pearl Jam (Everclear, Jeremy, etc.).
Currently, “killing it” as San Diego’s “hottest” stand up comedy open mic performer, stage name “Scorcher”, so dubbed by one loyal young host. Still very new to the comedy scene, already sending my target audiences home laughing, teary-eyed, in “body bags”.
Motivated towards humility and empathy, a devoted team-builder, task-master and creativity’s own facilitator where fellow professionally-minded individuals seek to join together in creating something very special - Epic Proportions!
Once gaining their attention, capture and retain audience intensity through interactive, transformational works and performances with songs and lyrics to justify a mass appeal and response.
Motto: Gold and Diamonds Only - Nothing for free!
