ABOUT

Hi, My name is Michael, I'm 42 years old and a talented vocalist with potential. I've been told many times over the years I should have a serious go at being a little more serious with music, I have a particular passion for singing. I am also interested in doing some back up studio stuff for experience

For the last few years I have had to be satisfied with the odd karaoke show and occasionally a live band at the pub, singing a few numbers with them. Apart from that just singing in the car. I suppose any practice is good practice.

I have had a little bit of experience with band work, unfortunately most of it has been auditions where the band mentioned I was impressive but it has mainly been problems with old singers coming back which I suppose is understandable but from my end quite annoying.

I did do a couple of tavern gigs in tuggers although it was pretty awkward and I was quite wet behind the ears with the whole live performance thing.

I did have the cool experience of performing Jesus Christ Superstar at Erindale with Canberra Philarmonic back in about 2005.

Fundamentally I want to do this again because it is fun although I would be willing to commit to band practice through the week and live performance, I guess that is essentially why I am doing this.
