The Official Raven White MySpace© Profile
After being the lead singer & keyboardist of such bands as TELEX CABARET, CHINA CULT and VAMPIRE CIRCUS . . . RAVEN WHITE has gone Solo and now Mixes His Original Eclectic Songwriting Style With Occasional Covers By his favorite and sometimes *Forgotten* 80's Electronica Artists . . . Like JOHN FOXX, ZAINE GRIFF, JAPAN and others in his live performances.
Raven White's 1st solo band included a new line up of band members which began in October of 2005 and they played at several Retro 80's Nightclubs and All Originals Showcase sets in the Los Angeles and San Diego areas to very positive responses.
After a year with his 1st backing band band - due to several - occurances in line-up changes, Raven performed serveral shows 100% as a solo performer with no band and Received Rave Reviews ! Due to his stage and equipment set up and programming Raven White is still 100% a fully functioning live performing musician ! Thanks to 21st century technology, being able to play several different instruments and rhythm track programming there is no stopping Raven from his scheduled series of live performances.
However, a new Drummer and a new Keyboardist have been recently added for a series of live shows !
NEWS FLASH !
ELECTRONIK DRUMMER - DOUGLAS SMITH & KEYBOARDIST - MICHAEL TENABRAE have signed on to be Raven White's Permanent Live Band ! Looking Forward To The Upcoming Shows With Both Of Them !
Raven's current take on what he is up to is simply that . . .
He plays in a band. Sings, write songs, manage gigs, plays guitar, keyboards, bass (play Bass in the studio mostly) hope to do a Tour of Germany and Europe ! Also as a hobby, I collect actual old monster movie film prints ! As in movies on REEL to REAL that I project at parties and old movie theatres where I do a " Monster Movie Marathon " for the day ! I find these things to be fun . . . . . . . for me at least ! I am not here to put up with any of the " VOODOO ON THE BRAIN " games ! I am real, if you are as well and like the SHOWS I am doing . . . . . kewl ! Maybe I will see you at one of my upcoming events !
