SEEKING

ABOUT

Hey folks. I'm a vocalist and we've just started a fun 70's cover band. Not the rocking stuff you'd imagine, but more of the smooth and highly produced hits. Stay tuned for our launch this summer!

I've also been doing a lot of short term cover bands so up for a wide variety of music.

I've been doing some songwriting and recording some vocals as part of collaborations. I'd be interested in doing some vocals on your tracks. See audio for Butterflies & Explosions. This was a short term collaboration between folks who had never played together. I came up with the melodies and lyrics. Would love to do more of this.

Influences

My voice can be described as a mix of soft deep acoustics similar to Christina Perri, Norah Jones, and Alanis Morrisette, that can adapt to sound more sand-paper edgy like Pat Benatar, Pink, even Lady Gaga.

I love a lot of genres spanning rock, dance, ska, punk, blues, R&B. Not so much into jazz, opera, or christian rock.

Hmm... lots of favorites these days like Vampire Weekend, Metric, MGMT, Young Evils, Killers, Alt-J, Phoenix, Pearl Jam, Black Keys, Zeppelin, Lenny Kravitz, Ramones, Rancid

Blues/Soul - Ray LaMontagne, Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Passenger

Also love Dinosaur Jr., New Order, Depeche Mode, The Smiths, The Specials, Bob Marley, The Selector, Sublime.
