Hey friends,
I'm an experienced singer and guitarist with over 20 years gig experience lead singing, acoustic/electric rhythm guitar and original songwriter. More recently I have been bringing my own style to some chosen covers.
I'm looking for a collaborative role working with other musos to create a unique sound. Either originals or an original approach to covers is my thing.
I'm just as happy to take the lead vocals, as share front or provide backing vocals. I'm strong on acoustic guitar and typically play when singing live, but also solid on rhythm guitar, bass and percussion when needed.
Filling the spot in an established gigging band would be great, but I'm very open to building a new sound too.
I'm in the outer east of Melbourne but prepared to travel for rehearsal and gig.
I plan to record and upload some current demos soon. Here's a few tracks I've been playing with lately:
Reckless - Australia Crawl
Chandelier - Sia
Wicked game - Chris Isaac
Dollar Bill - Screaming trees
Brandy Alexander - Ron Sexmith
The night is blackbird - Augie March
Better be home soon - Crowded house
Nothing compares to you - Prince
