ABOUT

Versatile(ish) vocalist into soul, funk, pop, modern country, Jazz, Blues, blues-rock, blue-eyed soul and folk.

Currently sing solo with backing tracks, sometimes with a female as a duet and a little with a blues band. I do small private gigs, charity gigs, open mics and I also busk. i jam the odd time with instrumentalists too. Play the Cajon a bit, but working on that.

Seeking an experienced acoustic guitarist for chilled pub gigs etc. Ability to harmonise or do backing vocals a bonus.

Can cover blues pretty well so would consider a band in need of a vocalist. Not great as a backing vocalist.

Ultimately interested in connecting with keys, drums, guitar, upright bass and brass players to practice jazz standards with, maybe later gigging with the right sound,

Would also consider collaborating with a female jazz vocalist and creating a larger soul-funk band for paid gigs too.
