About Me

Zelda is a performer who sings, plays guitar,writes songs, and acts occassionally.//////// Did my first New York open mic tonight 7/9/08 or the 9/7/08 Stuffed it up a bit but all up it went o.k. Gosh all the time I've spent playing in those dodgy pubs in New Town, Sydney, have paid off. Playing in a kind of upmarket place like the Artica Bar on Third Ave was a breeze compaired to playing in places like the Sando and Sly Fox in Sydney.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/8/2007
Band Members: Just me so far, along with my varying personalites and moods.
Influences: So many influences. Top of the list John Lennon, George Harrison, The Beatles in general,David Bowie, Roy Orbison,Otis Redding, Ray Charles, Louis Armstrong, Crissy Hynde and The Pretenders, The Drifters and The Platters, Elvis, The Kinks,The RollingStones, Eric Clapton,The Band, Led Zeppelin, Bob of course, oh there's so many influences I'll add more as I go along. Amy Winehouse, she's great,Edith Piaf a street singer - she's great too.
Sounds Like: I am much more comfortable singing low like the blokes but I am making efforts to get up high with the girls, takes more vocal strength to get up high. So it's all developing. I sound like me at this stage and that's who I want continue sounding more like.
