You got a track you need vocals for? I will sing it. My range goes from low D to very high A. I never miss a note.
I'm known for my very high falsetto.
You got a track that needs rhythm guitars or piano/keys? I will play them. I'm not a mozart but I can play pop, jazz.
I also record my own songs in my home studio. My latest EP (an ode to Prince) has been sung, produced and made entirely in my home studio. Check out www.jimcole.be
