ABOUT

shelly77345 at yaw hoo

I am a musician/songwriter and I play guitar and bass and some keys.

I am currently starting a recording project and am seeking a female vocalist for a 3 song EP. It is a bit of a departure from my typical style as I am working with a film composer (Richard Band) to help with orchestral arrangements. The music is inspired by artists such as Jeff Buckley and his ilk.

I will let my music speak to my musical abilities and approach to recording. Attached are two music videos.

Roses and Propane - I am playing all instruments except drums and vocals. In addition, I wrote and played the string arrangements. The music video version of the song is a more updated version as opposed to the attached music track.

Runaway - I am playing all the guitars and I wrote the lyrics and vocal melody. The bass line was written by me and is performed by bassist Chris Chaney of Jane's Addiction. And the drums arranged by me are played by Kenny Aronoff.
