ABOUT

Hello,
I've been playing the piano since I was 7. I'm trained in classical and jazz, but I love playing rock, indie, folk, pop, and definitely the blues. Picked up the synthesizer when I was 17, and I can sing. I've been in 4 bands before, and I want to be in another band where I can have substantial creative influence.
My sound is best described as indie/blues/electronic/rock, if that's possible. Why not?

Influences

Everything. I try to take whatever I hear and put it into music. Mostly I draw from the blues, rock, electronica, and whatever the indie universe is experimenting with. However, I'm open to all influences as long as they produce a good and interesting sound.
