ABOUT

Hello there,

I'm looking for fellow followers of Messiah who are also committed, professional musicians to support me as a singer-songwriter, grow alongside each other, & develop our sound eventually to the point of:

1) Local gig performances to start (may need to initially perform for free as we get experience & exposure collabing as a unit),

2) Recording,

3) Potentially touring outside of the DMV area, U.S.A, &

4) Potentially doing this on a long-term basis, if The Almighty is willing.

I prefer for the musicians to live in the D.C., Southern Maryland, or Northern Virginia area so we can easily meet up for fellowship & practice. My desire is to hone in on the singing, composition, & visual art components (music video &/or liturgical theatrical scripts/ideas), while you (the musician?) spice up the sound. I am a 7th Day Sabbath observer, & am looking for musicians willing to either meet up Saturdays after sunset &/or during workable timeframes on Sunday that will allow us to still tend to additional engagements if need be/desired.

Lets use the gifts YHVH has given us to glorify HIM through our authentic, original music & visual arts components. Let our lives & music embody:

Revelation 12:11- “They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death.”

Ephesians 5:19-20- “Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your hearts to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” and

Colossians 3:16-17- “Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”

Seeking (Minimum):

- 1 Pianist
- 1 Bass player
- 1 Drummer, a + if you know how to work elect. percussion systems
- 1 Guitarist

You do not need to know how to read music. Let’s see if we mesh well together artistically! Below is a link to a song I’ve produced by The Almighty’s grace. It will give you a feel for an aspect of who I am as a singer-songwriter and artist. I appreciate artistic diversity and am not locked in on one sound as long as we allow The Almighty to use us as HE desires.

Please reach out if you’re interested in learning more.

Shalom (Peace),
Imani
