SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist - Alto, Drums, Lead Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Vocalist - Soprano.ABOUT
I am a keyboard player looking for musicians to collaborate with in creating great original work, then getting it out there. Vocalists with good melodic senses are very complimentary to me. Covering the work of others is not a big interest.
I have played a lot at different points. My taste in music is very broad so long as it is good and authentic. My roots are in jazz and also rock and the blues. I have also dabbled a bit with electronic music.
I have been involved in the performing arts for a while. I think that the way one gets one's music out there has changed radically. I do think that it starts with great musical ideas that are different and can connect with people.
