Hey all - Now that pandemic restrictions are lifting a bit, I'd love to collaborate with folks, whether just for jam sessions or a more formal group of some kind. I can sing pretty much anything you throw at me (most genres, most ranges), as I have a five-octave range and a very broad basis of experience. I'm a very quick study, and while I can certainly hold my own as a soloist, I am much happier singing harmony.
While I can definitely help with music composition, lyric-writing, and arranging, as well as being fairly useful in post-production studio work, the only instrument I bring to the table is my voice. But, the samples that I've uploaded are all solo a cappella works that I self-produced (using my very limited set up at home).

Influences
I pull influences from anything I hear and like, regardless of genre, but I was primarily raised on the folk music of the 60s & 70s, western classical music (all periods), and showtunes. While I started singing barbershop and chamber music in high school, by the late '90s I'd dived into performing (and arranging, directing, and judging) Collegiate A Cappella music, focusing on pop music from the '60s-'00s. Throw me whatever music you like, though - I love a challenge and a change to learn something new!
