ABOUT

Hey!

Don't panic: I'm named "the Diva" not for my over-inflated ego, but for my operatic background as a singer.

Although currently in the midst of many musical endeavours including performing in an opera, writing and jamming with a band and doing some open-mics around town, I'm always open to new projects, especially if they're tempting enough. ;)

My dream musical project is to put together a local indie-rock/pop band with a strong vocal esthetic. I want to make catchy music that allows me to use my voice to it's full potential (think: the last chorus of "Into your hideout" by Pilot Speed or "Starlight" by Muse or better yet: Check out my rendition of "Karma Police" by Radiohead!) What I DON'T want to do is sing opera in a rock band (à la System of a Down). I just want a little vocal variety.

As for my skills, I'm a more than competent rhythm guitar and have no problem playing and singing complex phrases. I'm a developing lead guitarist and I'm looking to branch out into keyboard... hoping to put all those years of piano practice to good use.

If you share my vision of music, msg me. I'm very musically curious so don't be shy -- no matter what you play!
