SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm looking to start a band. I've written a bunch of songs ranging from soulful ballads to alternative rock, to fun and cheeky. Some of my songs are complete, but I'd love to collaborate on the others and on future songs. I have no problem singing songs someone else wrote, and I do cover songs of both male and female artists. I have a BA in Music, can read music, conduct, etc. I have been singing since I could talk and learned the flute at 9 years old. I've played in numerous concert bands and small symphonias as well as solo and in small groups. I have sung in various religious and secular concert choirs as well as solo and in small groups. I have performed on stage in musicals and musical reviews with ameture and professional musicicians. I also have been teaching music for 20 years.

Influences

As a teen I loved musicals as well as pop stars such as Whitney Houston and Bette Midler, but grew up listening to 60's and 70's rock and folk. As I've gotten older, I realize how much it all has influenced my writing and composition. I continue to be a fan of musicals, but also love all sorts of rock, pop, and accapella singing. I would be in my total element in a group singing a variety of folk, rock, pop and musical theater pieces.
