ABOUT
I am hoping to become the lead singer of a new or existing band.
I would be happy to put together a new band to perform “just for fun”, comprised of musicians who desire only to have a good time, while improving their skills, expanding their repertoire, and gaining experience.
I would also be happy to front an established band looking for a highly committed lead singer who is already familiar with hundreds of popular songs of the past 7 decades.
I have significant experience as a choir member, singing the Tenor parts of four-part (SATB) choral arrangements. My comfortable vocal range is G2 to C5.
