I've been singing for 56 years, staring with vocal jazz in high school. I began singing in bands shortly after graduating and have been doing it ever since. I can sing most styles of music from jazz to pop, love harmony singing and can do head charts on the spot. Can sight read pretty well, but have a very good ear. Love studio work and live performance too.
