Keyboardist/Vocalist One Man Band

West Covina CA

Description

I am a youthful and spry 50ish keyboardist/vocalist, and I am looking for restaurant/bar/coffee house gigs and maybe another instrumentalist/vocalist to perform and busk with, though I put out a big phat wall of sound all by myself. Most ideally that other person would be a guitarist/vocalist, but I am open to another keyboardist or reed player or violinist. I am also open to a truly excellent vocalist that doesn't necessarily play an instrument. I use some amazing electronics to sound like a full band. I play all the signature parts of the song and the bass, too. The electronics add multiple other style specific parts. I cover many songs by The Beatles, Elton John, Kansas, Yes, Steely Dan, Sting and The Police, Stevie Wonder, Steve Winwood, Fleetwood Mac, Peter Gabriel, Supertramp, David Bowie, Pink Floyd, Journey, Genesis, Toto, Foreigner, Queen, Tears For Fears, The Eurythmics, and others from the 60's - 80's rock and pop and soul genres, but I throw in some Bob Marley, Roberta Flack, The Carpenters, Tom Jones, Toni Braxton, Al Green, The BeeGees, Simon and Garfunkle, Barbara Streisand, John Denver, Louis Armstrong, Ray Charles, James Brown, Cat Stevens, Sonny and Cher, Frank Sinatra, Dionne Warwick, Patsy Cline, Etta James, Walt Disney, Dr. Seuss, Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, Brahms, Chopin, and music from tv, movies, and theatre, too. I don't necessarily bill myself as an impressionist, but you will hear very strong vestiges of all the vocalists I cover whether they are male, female, black, or white. I will be in the SLO area by July 1st. I have a nice RV and will be trying to support myself exclusively by playing music and selling my artwork (floor tile mosaics and painted stones), too, but I have every practical blue collar skill and all necessary tools to do just about any kind of construction or repair work including automobiles and electronics if I must. I am awake, but not woke. Drop me a line, and we will talk more. Thank you!!
