Caelan + Musician in Oak Park, IL

SEEKING

ABOUT

Harmony junkie who sings for the pure joy of it. I'm partial to electric guitar, but love that fat sound acoustic guitar adds to the mix.

I've got an excellent ear and stay on pitch like a boss. Great work ethic: I rehearse a lot and put in the time to get it right. I hit the highlights in my influences list, but I listen to and like a bunch of different music beyond this list.

I don't have experience singing with a band, but I'm in a choir (not faith-based). We sing popular music, including the Beatles, Motown, Broadway and jazz. I've had a couple of solos and a duet, and I sing at open mic, as well as with musicians at bars and coffee places.

Other highlights:

- One of 16 singers chosen from about 80 to perform in a May 2017 Habitat for Humanity Ethiopia benefit concert.
