    Hi guys,
    Im a 21 year old singer/songwriter based in north co.dublin.I have been gigging a very long time,mostly with my own stuff which i try to keep as upbeat and catchy as possible and i am improving my songwriting all the time . Anyway,i am looking for a female vocal to add to the sound.Initially it would involve doing some covers i have in mind for the type of sound and the original stuff would come soon after.Im looking for someone who can harmonise,has an ability to write and contribute to songs,an ability on piano,guitar or any instrument really would also be very welcomed.
    My influences include damien rice,tracy chapman,frightened rabbit,lisa hannigan,johnny cash,conor obesrt,the fray,spill canvas,the list goes on.
    here is a link of me doing some covers i have since improved and its just to give an idea of my voice,playing,thanks for reading !!!:)

    forgot to mention that i have contacts for gigs that are really ideal for acoustic stuff which the crowds are very interested in hearing so the intention would be to get gigging whenever we are ready!

    Hey,
    Id be interested in tryin out for you. Im a 22 year old female, singer, living in Dublin(City Centre Oct- May). I have some gig experience but am definatly in the early stages of my musical development. Been singing all my life but its only the past 2/3years that Ive really began to believe in the option of me following a career in music to be honest. Before this I never contemplated that I was a good enough singer.
    Anyway as regards to what I like, my all time favorite is Dolly Parton. I think shes an animal singer, songwriter, performer and bussiness women. Johnny Cash I agree is a winner, also like Elvis, Pink, Shakira (haha bit of a step down there!:p), Tina Turner, The Saw Doctors, Thin Lizzy, Elbow and loads of other artists across most of the genres.
    I have alot of performance experience through acting, I have been heavily involved in theatre over the past 8years (been in/written/directed various shows during this time). Im currently doing a degree in it but very keen to become a giging artist, and ready and available to commitee the nessecary time, should you like my voice.

    Rito, cette moi :o,
    Gráinne.

    yeah well i was in a band for a few years singing and been looking to get back into something, we mostly did covers of pj harvey, distillers, manson, mettalica, ozzy, cranberries, probably some more but it's been so long now can hardly remember! :p

    as for what i'd like to do now would just to be able to take any song going that the group say, would like, and to be able to put a rock twist on it, like to do covers but to make them our own at the same time, not sure if that entirely makes sense but sure!

    I've also done some song writing in the past and play a little guitar so no doubt I'd be well rusty but could catch back up again with a bit o practice!
