I am a vocalist and guitarist, aspiring to be a singer/songwriter. I have a few original songs with lyrics that I've composed on acoustic guitar. I'm looking to work them up into larger arrangements, with higher energy. I'm interested in working with others in a collaborative setting, with consensual creative control. My life is quite busy at the moment, so committing to once/week is about what I can do for now. Perhaps more as things evolve.
