I’ve been singing for over 15 years on and off stage. I started singing jazz when I was a kid (and still do) but grew an interest in rock and started singing in manner closer to David Bowie, Roy Orbison, Buddy Holly, The Beatles to name a few.
I’ve been playing guitar for several years and have a good handle on time and playing both rhythm and lead whether I’m playing a Bob Dylan or Joni Mitchell song on an acoustic guitar or playing rockabilly or Iggy Pop on electric.
