SEEKING

ABOUT

I am a singer/songwriter, author, and artist. I try to divide my time up between my three passions. As usual, I am working on a new novel. I am also constantly writing songs, whenever the spirit hits me. I paint when I am inspired to do so. I live my life on inspiration. I hope I'll never run out of songs and that those early morning awakenings that sometimes occur when a song hits, will never go away.
My favourite genres are at the moment, Country and Blues. I also like Classic Rock, Classic Country, and just about every other kind of music. I am in awe of talented musicians and do not consider myself one of them. I am speaking of anyone who can play a musical instrument and make it sing. My forte, if I have one, is singing and writing. The day I find the perfect back-up band for me will be an awesome day! When I write a new song, the music and the words come together, and I can also hear the arrangement in my head. So what I am playing on my guitar is not what I hear in my head. I unfortunately do not have drums, base, piano, etc, nor could I play them if I did. To hear a talented singer/musician perform one of my songs would be a great gift. Maybe someday.
I have just started to work in JamStudio to make some arrangements for my songs. Please note that whenever you hear a new song from me that has accompaniment, it will most likely be from JamStudio. Please also know that I only did the arrangement and the singing on my own songs and that the instruments used are from JamStudio.
I like to jam with others and the reason I am here is to find others with similar likes.
