ABOUT

I am a dedicated lead vocalist with a 3 octave range as well as keyboard player with Progressive rock/nu-jazz/nu- metal and Celtic influences...think Iona, Spock's Beard, Rush, Dream Theater, Pink Floyd.

I'm looking to start or partner in a band with serious, creative, disciplined, musicians who are self controlled and have a positive vision and spirit.
