ABOUT

Hey BM! 25 year old vocalist based in Livermore, Ca. Been rockin my pipes since my voice broke and have been interested in collaborating over the past few years. Current aspiration is a permanent spot in an open minded mod/alt/art rock group with a touch of electro doing a few gigs a month semi-locally. Possibly more in the future. Done the recording thing, I really enjoy that but I would be best positioned in front of a crowd. I am free evenings and I practice a few hours in the early mornings before the 8-5. Love it :)
Realistically, I'm an intermediate level vocalist and I will never consider myself an expert out of principle, I'm always learning and growing. Beginner lyricist with a touch of promise.

Influences

Hate this part... I am most apparently influenced by the primordial music soup that was the 90's, crooners (Sinatra, Martin, Buble, and that Jr. fellow... not Sammy Davis), R&B vocal groups, Billy Joe Armstrong, Eddie Veder, Eddie Van Halen, Huey Lewis, Jim Morrison, MaynArd James Keenan (don't tell him though), Bradley Nowell, and a bunch of other folks I'm sure.
