ABOUT

I'm an empty-nester with a professional day job and have been back to the music scene for a couple of years. I have a degree in vocal music from many years ago. My guitar skills are pretty basic, but I add a little depth to total sound. I'm a lead vocalist and do some harmony background too. I'm affiliated with 2 bands: For Pete's Sake in Columbus (Westerville) and Houseshakers in Newark, OH.

Influences

I always thought power chest voice was my differentiator but some people like my lower range better (Gold Dust Woman). I have a versatile sound, though. Some covers include 4 Non Blondes, Melissa Etheridge, Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, Pat Benatar, Indigo Girls, Fleetwood Mac, Tracy Chapman, Dua Lipa, Sixpence None The Richer, Anna Nalick, - even some country and folk. I sing guy stuff too such as Black Crowes, Steve Miller Band, Foo Fighters, Rush, Govt Mule, Tom Petty, Beatles, John Mellencamp, and more. My list includes 70s, 80s, 90s, and newer rock, pop, blues, country, etc. Can do some metal.
