SEEKING
Band to Join.ABOUT
Female singer looking for a new challenge. I was a member of Rock Choir from 2012 until 2018, and performed a number of Solo's with them at gigs. Since then I have been expanding my horizons, branching out into different styles such as jazz/blues & Country/folk. For the last 2 or 3 years I have been performing at local Open Mic nights with some of the regular musicians and as part of an acoustic duo which specialises in harmony work. This is something I am really enjoying. I would like to find a local musician/band who wants a female vocalist to potentially gig once or twice a month - duo/trio or a band). I am happy to sing lead or harmonies.
I have uploaded some of the performances I have done with the Choir, at Open Mic nights and also at a couple of local Charity shows to my YouTube Channel with links on my profile here. Please do give them a look/listen!
In between Lockdowns I began the process of producing a demo cd to show more recent styles and skills. This will hopefully be finished once Covid restrictions are relaxed. I have however uploaded a few of the ROUGH CUT track if you want to have a listen - please read the notes though!
