Laid back and no ego guy who just always would sing along to music. Couldn’t help myself. So that pretty much led to my first band asking me to sing for them. Sang for a few bands after that one dissolved and then life just got really hectic and moving away kind of took me out of that scene. Never stopped singing along to everything of course. Moved back and was asked by a friend if I’d be interested in singing again. So we have been working on some original material here and there and I guess the itch from that bug that bit me so many years ago never went away. Lol.
Figured I’d try this and see if there were any musicians out there with which to mesh and create with. Original stuff, covers, or a mix of the two. It all works for me.
Have been trying to learn about recording, producing, mixing, etc. at home in my spare time. Which is limited but I enjoy doing it when I am able.
Sorry to get long winded and all, so anything you wanna know just drop a note or whatever. Thanks.

EQUIPMENT
At present I’m using a Blue Yeti usb mic as I do all of my present work online or via computer. I do have some other mics but probably of lower quality. I haven’t really tried them yet however, to be completely obvious. I also have some guitars, both acoustic and electric, to attempt to learn as well as therapy for my hands.
