I am a singer who has mostly sung with professional and amateur choirs and groups. I have not pursued solo/background singing, but I have been toying with it for a while. I am interested more in folk and celtic right now, a little rock too. I am also interested in jazz and blues. I am ok with alternative/modern, but I think vocally I am more suited to folk and celtic.

EQUIPMENT
My voice is a lyric soprano medium range. I have 2+ good octaves, with some ability to go a little higher and lower, depending...
I am a beginner acoustic guitarist and pianist. I am interested in improvement in both guitar and piano, and am interested in learning bass.
I play a little conga, hand percussion, found objects.
I am interested in both singing fairly traditionally as well as using my voice for other musical purposes, like found sound/soundscaping. You can email me at [email protected].
