ABOUT

I am an experienced vocalist who started preforming professionally when I was 15 years old in wedding bands, for professional business parties like Microsoft, in hotels, and in bars in St. Louis, Missouri. I continued to sing in Southern France when living there for 5 years. Did French/English Translations and writing and recording.

I would like to sing with other vocalists. I am a strong lead vocalist but enjoy sharing lead work and believe mixed harmonic vocals provide a better sound and preformance that only experienced preformers can provide. This is what I am looking for. Mature preformers and musicians.

My family moved to France and I sang with a professional regional festival orchestra with 10 pieces. The orchestra had been established in the region for 40 years. My first preformance was as a co-vocalist with a male vocalist in Canne on the French Riviera. I sang all over France with the group for 2 years until my family left France. I also recorded in studio demos for local French composers who needed English vocals in the area.

Influences

I am capable of being a melodic and rhythmic partner with other vocalists. I have preformed and sang enough to know that entertainment is a creative form of personal expression and art that many people want to experience in some way. It is cathartic for the audience and the performers who are just people trying to have a good time through sound, visual effects and their need for connection with a social world.
