Six years ago, my buddy needed help writing a song, so we collaborated and came up with this. He had the first few lines and a melody and we cultivated it from there. Keep in mind that this is WITHOUT any studio magic, so these takes are more raw than ever. :P We also initiated a distortion-laden cover of 'Subterranean Homesick Blues' by Bob Dylan. Yes, my sloppy harmonica playing was done intentionally. :-)

I Am The Poem

Singing Bowie With Kevin

You know how certain pieces do not require vocals? I believe the same to an extent. I also believe that certain pieces do not require instrumentation. With that being said, most of my tracks are a cappella, for vocal performance is my main goal. I tinker with instruments here and there, so I apologize in advance if they sound a tad screwy. I realize I have a long way to go with my voice, but practice makes almost perfect! :-) Other than that, my bio in a nutshell is below.

Publisher/Poet. Singer/Songwriter/Lyricist. Tinkerer of Instruments. Co-Editor of @TZPress1. Essayist. Legal Writer. Voice Actor. Bibliophile. Animal/Music Lover. Intersectional Feminist. Illinois Native. Old Soul
