Band to Join, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Keyboard, Piano, Background Singer, DJ, Electronic Music.ABOUT
I am a songwriter, guitarist, record producer, singer and recording artist. Originally born in San Francisco, I moved to New Jersey when I was a teenager and picked up the guitar at age 13 and playing and writing ever since. Music I write and produce now are FUSION high energy vocal, electro house/dance pop.
My debut EP, Live Music, was released in 2016, and epitomizes high energy, vocal and acoustic driven electro-dance/pop music featuring rudiments of rock/alternative and country/bluegrass. These three songs happen to be Electro pop, as my music inspirations and original roots are in alternative rock, rock & roll, and blues, are reflected in my songs that feature rhythmic acoustic guitar strum patterns, blues riffs, saxophone, and piano.
My music is "full of energy" encompassing very catchy choruses and melodies that cater to a mass audience.
I have been writing music from ground up for over 15 years. Over a decade ago, I garnered industry accolades after recording music with a couple platinum record producers; however, with change in music industry at that time, decided to complete my studies and focus my career in Finance.
Now getting back in strong...
Goal is two fold:
1) to collaborate with other aritists and record more music
2) to form a group for live playing (ORIGINAL music); mine and of course the music of whomever I form a group with.
The majority of my songs although popish, comprise live instruments and can be played live. And I have many other songs that are acoustic and piano driven house, but also country/alternative rock.
if that makes sense!!!
