Band/artist history
I recently became the 5 member of "The Different Shades Of Brown" who are truly 4 of the most talented singers I've ever worked with. They have such an unbelievable story and industry background. They started out with Motown back in the day and have returned to share their talents once more with a new CD which I am a honored to be part of. Stop by www.cdbaby.com/cd/tdsob and read their story.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I perform live every chance I get. I've performed at the MGM Casino in the Brown Derby most recently where several audience members placed hundred dollar chips on the piano as tips. I thought that was special. At my 2005 New Years Eve show, the bartenders (fellas) got so into the show, that they did a striptease ( all in fun) on top of the bar. That was very special and by the way yes, I love to perform live it gives me a chance to get up close and personal with my audience.. I love working with other bands and groups. I'm currently having the pleasure of working with people like the Legendary "Spyder Turner" The Funk Brothers , Booby Taylor Of the Vancouvers , The Different Shades of Brown and Motowns finest background group"The Andantes" who I will share the stage with in England in October 2006.
Your musical influences
My influences are a little jazzy like Billy Holiday, a little pop from Brenda (Piano In The Dark) Russell, of course the Motown sound is in there, some sweet soul harmonies like Brownstone, sexy r&b like Toni Braxton, and pop/hip hop flavor like TLC and unique creativity like Marvin Gaye.
What equipment do you use?
I like and use a AKG multi band cordless mic for live situations, the freedom of movement is important to me, so that I can get with the audience when its good . In the studio I use a Neuman U47 for vocals, Trident Console, MCI 24 track analogue recorder and lots of Behringer and Aphex outboard gear. I like the warmth of analogue as opposed to other sources. My new CD which I recently finished..is entitled "A Little Bit Of This And That" is a combination of analog and Pro-tools.
Anything else?
When I'm working on a new project, especially studio work, I like to record with real live musicians. The sound is much warmer and sincere than sampling. Plus I like that personal influence that comes from my friends and players when they get into the music. The proof is in the listening. If you have any doubt about recording live, just continue on and play my songs on this site. Sawtah! pronounced 'saw-tah' (Cherokee for -Be Happy)
