some of my lyrics.

I write lyrics and I sing. I've had immense positive feedback, so you can be confident when I say I can sing. My voice is really versatile. When I sing from the heart, it's amazing how many styles my voice can pull off. I prefer to write in a 70's rock style. I'm looking to develop a style with other musicians. I don't have any videos up yet of my songs, except for ONE music vlog I did on the stop at 3 am once when everyone was asleep. I can sing soft and sultry, and loud and high, I can go operatic, I can go screamo.. I'm not an "all about me" person. I'm not a control freak, at all. In fact, I strive to be the opposite. Things work better when you stop trying to control them, I believe.
My dream is to cover "Dream on".

EQUIPMENT

Hardly anything, I'm planning on getting more once I get a band together. but here ..it's a pretty pathetic list so far.
condenser mike, chord to hook up to computer, audacity program for editing i don't really use much and it was free, an electric guitar (shitty but it works for writing ya know?) Good amp, bigger than the size of most start kit amps, don't remember name of it it's not with me while i'm filling this out, Recording King acoustic guitar, (capo, tuner, picks, duh) and a classical guitar i want to trade in for a bongo.
