SEEKING
Band to Join, Acoustic Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Trumpet, Vocalist.ABOUT
I am thirty-seven, I have been performing and singing since I was five. I started in church, and in school drama. I played trumpet in the high school band but have not played it much since. I play a bit of guitar, mostly punk and metal type power chords. My real passion is vocals and performance as a front man. I graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in L.A. , I am originally from Ohio, but I lived in Los Angeles for two years, and I have lived in Daytona Beach since March of 2015. I have a musical theatre back ground, and was active in the local community theatres in Ohio. I was involved in a couple of punk bands after I graduated from high school, but not much came out of it. I perform at open mic nights around the area and sing karaoke at least once a week. I have wanted to get involved with music in a more serious way for as long as I can remember. I also write lyrics and poetry, I draw and paint a bit, and I love to grow my own food in my garden. I'm a beach bum and love to bodysurf, fish, and I go hiking and camping when ever I have a chance!
