I am looking for fellow music lovers who aim to marry the brilliance of old soul with ethnic influence and the technological possibilities of today. My solo is on every major streaming platform, but I want to be a part of a team and start an NYC band. I am a jazz and R&B singer who was classically trained but interested in all types of music. I hope to explore and experiment and am flexible. I speak English and French but have experience singing also in Arabic, Spanish, German, and Italian. Music is my passion and I want to work and create with others who also have contagious, passionate energy. My most prized possession is my 160GB iPod Classic and massive music collection. I have sung the National Anthem over 350 times in a variety of public venues. Dignitaries in attendance have included President Barack Obama, President Bill Clinton, General Chuck Yeager, and Vice Presidential candidate Tim Kaine. I was the youngest ever featured soloist with the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra in their Broadway Pops series. I also worked as lead vocals with the West Virginia University Jazz Ensemble. When living in Australia for just six months, I managed to establish myself to the point of recording a 6 song EP for a private composer and be guest singer at several jazz clubs throughout the city of Melbourne.
