ABOUT

Musician + Videographer + Band Photographer
Looking for a collaborative co-songwriter who can play both acoustic & electric guitar who can also flip between both rhythm and lead. I know that is a lot to ask for but wait.....if you can also possibly play piano/keys for certain songs or teach me to do so (extremely fast learner here).....I would be forever grateful and forever in debt to you for helping me obtain my lifes purpose. To create. I would also consider a band looking for a vocalist. But I am going to say this....I am a bit on the shy side when it comes to expressing myself through music, as it is a highly emotional work we all do, and it is a bit difficult for me to just expose myself that way unless I have built up a level of trust first. So what may come out as a sqeek the first time I meet you, will come out a roar and then some once I know you have my back and we can create until death and beyond. I am highly dedicated to my music partner(s) and have no problem pulling extra weight infact I enjoy it. I have so far worked with a couple bands early on, and even done some acting where my vocals were required to keep the audience engaged during intermission. I left music for a long while to obtain a very demanding career, and then my circumstances changed and music saved my life....and now I am forever in debit to mysic for life. Since coming back, I have only worked in studio, and do not have any live/stage time yet on this second chapter of my musical life. I am definitely open to doing so, as I am slowly becoming more comfortable singing in front of random people, and I did have a good chunk of experience doing so in my fist chapter of my music life.
I would be so grateful if we could work together on melodies, bass lines, and piano/key sounds, As well as different drumming options when we are ready.
I do have a recording studio to get us going!!
And I can make it portable.
I'm very deticated to music.
I have always written my own lyrics/melodies and am great working with others at co-creating as well, I am never arrogant, and I know how to share, as well as how to listen, and how to bring out the best creativity in someone else too.
My vocal style varies as diversity is important to me, I never want two songs to sound the same!
My vocal range is diverse as well. I can sing quite low and also somewhat high but like the medium to low sound the best.
I also like to layer my own double and triple + harmonies in certain songs where needed, and am proficient in doubling naturally (I know there are also pedals for that)
I can sing very flat line, but also can put forth a bit of vibrato when that sound we want is right for it. I don't like the over kill of that though so my style is a bit different than the majority of female singers...and really who wants to be the same as anyone right??!!

Influences

What I listen to and what I have created so far with music have been two very different genre’s. I am highly interested in creating heavier, and darker themed tunes, where the songs I have done on CD are more of a “Doom Folk” as the friends I have let listen to them have called it. I very much grew up listening to heavy/progressive metal like: Death, Opeth, Amorphis, Dark Tranquility, EARLY In Flames ie. Subterranean and Jester Race, also Bilocate, Barren Earth, Edge Of Sanity, At the Gates, Before the Dawn, Samuel, For Many Reasons, Omnium Gatherum, Insomnium, and so many more.
The music I have co-created so far has been all original. I am open to covers also, but would be even more interested in covers if we took a great song, or even a not so great song, and made it amazing!
