I'm just your average creatively-gifted-but-perpetually-distracted gentleman with the voice of an angel. I am an excellent lyricist, singer, and creative, but lack the technical skills and collaborative influences that I wish I had to take the things I make and my development as a musician to something beyond a hobby I wish I made more time for.
As for my current standing, I have years of experience in classical vocal training as a tenor, as well as hundreds of hours experience performing in classical, theatrical, and contemporary contexts. Instrument-wise, I can get away with acoustic guitar to accompany myself and play ukulele because if you can play any guitar you can play uke. I can also write well and figure out how to do whatever I need to on Logic because you can literally google it.
I'm honestly extremely open about what I'm looking for. Really looking for anyone who can play any amount of anything, because for one, I think that whatever it happens to be could have a cool set of possibilities and helpful creative limitations. But mostly I just think it's more important to me that you love the creative process, are interesting to be around, and are willing to get excited about things.
