SEEKING
Vocalist, Acoustic Guitar, Keyboard, Background Singer, Mandolin, Fiddle, Dobro.ABOUT
Singer/Songwriter (Vocalist, Lyricist, and have heard music fully composed in my head for the last 15 years or so, which I transcribe to guitar, but I am not fully adept at playing in a quality way while I sing..and not quite adept as a guitar player, period.) Stylistic, soulful vocal: alto, contralto, second soprano. Interested in returning to gigging regularly in a duo situation with someone who plays guitar well, would like to do acoustic covers with a soulful thread (whether Americana, pop, country, southern rock) & can vocalize on your originals, and would love to play mine (about 20). Want to progress on gigging, selling/publishing songs, recording, launching a record or two & beyond.

Influences
I'm from Detroit originally..love a mix of well written songs with room for vocals, from classic rock to soul to Americana/Country, pop. Poetry. Sea chantys. Eva Cassidy. I enjoy thought-provoking & lifestyle provoking music (ala John Lennon), and adhere to content such as unconditional love & unconditional opportunity, diversity & unity, freedom, expression, romantic love, mindful awareness, wellness, rising to action where love of all & life meet. Love Ashford & Simpson originals: love, authenticity, simple universality, big universal impact. Making it light + humor makes it real.
