ABOUT

Hello. I have a background in Irish music, classical music, world music, and jazz (this includes a degree in music- voice and percussion). I toured in Ireland playing Bodhran and singing. I have sung, played percussion, Bodhran, and piano for various performances solo, as a hired musician, and for events in churches, synagogues, and with an Irish band. Im looking to branch out as a singer with either a jazz, klezmer, rock, punk, or folk band. My voice is a mix of jazz and opera and I'm classified as a lyric mezzo-soprano. I also compose and arrange music, and am published on JWPepper.
