SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
I’m creative, innovative, cool, positive, empowered and I love music. I write it, sing it, play it, listen to it, dance to it and jam with friends. Music is powerful, enjoyable and fun. I write songs in various genres: pop, blues, country, rock, café jazz, chorale and reggae. My songs have positive take-aways to inspire and empower you. I am a Singer Songwriter Musician and I am passionate about music, in particular songwriting, singing and playing percussion and guitar with other musicians to create a nice groove together. It’s all about the music and playing just enough notes to create the desired feel. I am versatile, and I am on the lookout for opportunities to play with other musicians and put my skills to good use. I was previously a radio presenter, I hold a certificate qualification as a Mental Health First Aider and I’m planning on recording my album of inspirational and empowering songs soon. I’ll let you know when it is available, so stay tuned. I have excellent organisational and communication skills and a background in administration, all useful skills in any work role. Have a good vibe and blessed day.
