Experience singing blues, a jazz rock (Chicago) , country/rock (Eagles), classic rock (Stones, Neil Young, Steely Dan) and soul. Sung in lots of choirs. Current member of choir-nation pick up choir at Mahtay Coffee House. Had a very successful gig on October 29th at Mahtay to raise money for Gillian's Place women's shelter. Will be singing 16 songs solo (blues, Ryan Adams, Winehouse, Van Morrison, Bruno Mars, Springsteen mix of tunes.) Have directed lots of musicals. Previously a theatre teacher and a director. Still study voice. Retired early and looking to sing again locally. Older but still love performing. Still play with my previous bands for fun once in a while. I am easy to get along with and its all about the music and the group not ego and advancement. Really need someone to accompany my singing and harp playing on either piano or guitar. Someone who loves folk and country and jazz and tasty unplugged stuff. You also need to be in St. Catharines or Niagara.
