Just a guy in search of balance and harmony!!!
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been singing all of my life but started down the formal path in college when I joined an a cappella group. That's where I learned how to harmonize and quickly knew that I had found my passion.
After the college years I began taking voice lessons in LA with Suzanne Weiss-Morgen and eventually started singing back-up harmonies in a local band. After doing that for about a year and change, I felt the urge to do a little something different. As such, I joined a band as the lead vocalist, which allowed me to broaden my horizons.
Nowadays, I'm in a new band called Rusty Vega which is currently comprised of 4 people. We are working on a combination of originals and covers including some from my album titled Slightly Chipped. You can listen to the songs from this album by clicking the Music link to the right under Quick Links.
Your musical influences
In reality, I tend to love songs not artists, but if I had to pick a few that Im into now it would go as so: TempationsDavid Ruffin sang with amazing passion; Matchbox 20In my mind they define pop/rock; Boyz II Men.harmony, harmony harmony; Hall and Oates.catchy, catchy songs; Good Charlottehooky pop/punk with some serious drive; and last but certainly not least Michael Jackson....my first favorite artist and the best all around performer ever.
