I'm a vocal coach by trade, a bit out of the box as I don't teach anything remotely classical like most educated teachers do. I like those raspy sounding singers that have power but don't sound "pretty."

I write in a variety of genres from Metal to Funk to Jazz, as I love a lot of styles and love to sing lots of styles. Lyrics and melody are my strong suits, but I can come up with some cool stuff on a DAW if need be. I dabble in keys but mainly am a bass player.

My favorite music to listen to is 80 Metal/Hard Rock, 70/80's Funk, 30s/40s Jazz, 60s and 90s Country. Haven't gotten into anything modern. Seems over processed/compressed, not enough dynamics or natural instruments, and drums are too "on the beat.".

Social media is a mystery to me, and a bit creepy, so no clue how to use hashtags. I'm old school and use emails, text and have a regular old website with a contact page. HA! Well...I do use YouTube, so I'm not totally in the dark ages.
