ABOUT

Seasoned singer and guitarist with over a decade of live performance experience. With a strong foundation in musical theatre, I bring dynamic stage presence and expert showmanship to every gig. While my roots are in theatrical vocals, I have extensive experience adapting my voice to various musical styles. Proficient in rhythm guitar and capable on keyboards when needed, I am eager to expand my repertoire and collaborate with a dedicated band. Comfortable engaging any audience, I want to ensure every performance is not just heard, but felt.

Influences

I can adapt to various styles, but my main vocal influences are Morrissey, David Bowie, and Maynard James Keenan from Tool. I thrive in clean vocal styles, especially those suited to a high tenor range.

In terms of guitar influence, I draw heavily on the styles of early Black Sabbath, Queens of the Stone Age and Melvins. I've often tried to emulate the sounds of doom/stoner/sludge metal bands like Eyehategod, Boris, Sleep and King Woman.
