I would be open to the idea of forming another band and I like blending genres and creating something new and dynamic.
In the past I've been a lead singer in rock, reggae and blues bands singing my original material as well as covers. I love working with a band where I can improvise lyrics while they jam, I find this a great way to generate new ideas.
I've sung with guitarists and keyboard players too, including jazz, French pop and boogie woogie. I've also acted in shows featuring music, comedy and a jazz band. I'm very versatile. On I'm known as Alexxa Flexa and here is the link:

MUSIC

Cocoon Me
Cocoon Me Track number: 1 Genre: Other
My friends had a dance track they wanted vocals for, I adapted some lyrics I had and recorded the vocals for them in a single studio session. I want to work on a jazz version of this song
-
Banquet
Banquet
A friend asked me to record some blues vocals for a song he'd written and he emailed me the guitar track he'd recorded. I recorded the vocals at home as a demo. He moved away before we got to do a studio recording
-
Heroine
Heroine Year: 2011 Genre: Jazz
I wrote this song about Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix and all the other musicians who died when they were 27. Amy Winehouse died a year after I wrote this song. It's an upbeat experimental jazzy grunge track about dying! One of the songs I did with Dirty Neon Blue

Crossed Lines (Junk Scientist studio track)
Crossed Lines (Junk Scientist studio track) Genre: Reggae
This is the second studio recording, the first one was softer and more traditional reggae. I would like to do a dubbier version too!
-
Get over Him
Get over Him Year: 2010 Genre: Alternative
This is a grungey track. I created the music using jamstudio (yes really!) and recorded vocals at home. It would be nice to work on with a live band and make it more metally
-
Pawn (live jam)
Pawn (live jam) Year: 2010
We played around with this song, which I'd been performing as an acoustic song. It has a funky rock style which is great!

Nothing Year: 2010 Genre: Punk
I was singing in a punk grunge band called Aloe. This is one of our songs. Its fast and furious!!
-
Get in Your Car
Get in Your Car Year: 2011 Genre: Hip Hop/Rap
This is one of my songs with the band Dirty Neon Blue. Its funky rap and jazz, and its about the dangers of accepting a ride with a strange but attractive man
