Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Background Singer, Vocalist - Alto.ABOUT
Having just relocated to Western New York, I'm looking to meet people and find places to play! My most recent experience is as a keyboard and bass player for a church worship band. Prior to that, I performed with a 9-piece R&B/Soul band, a 4-piece rock band, and as a soloist. I have a 3-octave singing range, from bass through high tenor, and I'm not afraid to try something new.
