SEEKING
Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Violin, Saxophone, Keyboard, Piano, Flute.ABOUT
I am a 20 year old female looking for a career in music. I have over 10 years of musical experience in playing the violin, 4 years voice experience, and am starting piano. I am looking to join up with a band as the lead vocalist (but am willing to start out as a background vocalist). My voice has enough range and strength to sing choir music but enough of an edge to sing pop and rock (which is what I prefer). I write my own lyrics and music but I am interested in starting out doing covers. I don't have "gig" experience per-say, but I have been on stage plenty of times for choir, dance and modelling. I love to be on stage and would love to tour.
Additionally: I am obsessed with languages and culture and speak English, French and Spanish, and some Italian, German and Japanese. I am a third year Arts & Science student at the University of Saskatchewan doing an Honours Degree in Languages and Linguistics and a minor in Anthropology. I also enjoy classes in psychology, drama, classics, history, art, english and computer science. I aspire to be a writer, singer and actress. I also hope to travel the world for a major part of my life. I also love cats, literature, dance, martial arts, modelling, shopping, video games and Starbucks.
