SEEKING
Keyboard.ABOUT
I'm a female vocalist looking to form a "one-vocalist-and-a-piano" type act. I hope to sell this act to local bars, restaurants, country clubs, corporate functions, private parties, and anyone else who would like us to entertain them with our piano/vocal renditions of jazz standards and jazzed up broadway classics. Most importantly, I'm interested in taking these classic songs and making them our own.
If you have a keyboard and amp, that would be great. Sight reading and the ability to transpose music a would also be a plus.
