I have been singing even before I could talk... All my experiences, my trials and my joys have their own soundrack. I tell a story, through song, I tell my story.
Too many years I sang what other people wrote for me, all with their own agenda, Make me out to be like this person or that person.... And I never seemed to get it quite right... it wasn't till after 17 years of being in the Music & Television industry that It wasn't right because it wasn't me.....
So now I am doing what I should have done 25 years ago.... I am learning my craft.... I started learning how to play music, for the first time. I play guitar and bass..... and then I started recording everything.. I have not particular genre, I just play what feels right to me.... and all these story songs came flooding out ..... that what they are my storys told through song.....
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I have onlyl played live twice.... so far (it is difficult for me to sing and play at the same time for some reason.) Vocally I am a passionate singer, and I love to close my eyes and just feel it) and hard to do when I am still looking and focusing on where the notes are ..lol
Your musical influences
Allyson Moyet, Barbara Streisand, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Kahn, Annie Lennox.
What equipment do you use?
An Array of equippment, I have 8 guitars , 2 basses, Harp, Satar...... World drums, bongos... built my recording consule on wheels so I am never locked down on where I feel like laying something down. Most time it is outside in my amazing back yard surrounded by water, fire and earth.
