Ramzi

I'm very easy going, and will work with anyone to deliver the show they want. I love what I do, and it shows in the performances. I have a relaxed style, but also put a lot of energy into performances and always give the music the attention it deserves.

Music has always been a huge part of my life. From playing trumpet for over 15 years to singing in various chamber, jazz and barbershop choirs, music has always had a strong hold on me. Though I’ve been playing the guitar since I was a teenager, it wasn't until I'd had a little more life experience that I really started getting into writing music. And it turns out I had a lot to say. Everything I've written draws on experiences from my life, and I wouldn't want it any other way, as that gives me a greater sense of attachment to the songs I write, and also lets me expose myself a little more. I'm just hoping to inspire or move someone the way so many songs have done for me. Leaving the office job world in California and moving to New York City in the fall of 2006 really opened me up and freed me to continue writing about the many experiences one has living in New York City. Written half in California and half in New York, I’m very excited about the release of my debut CD, Color. I call it songs about love and life, intended to put a smile on your face. And I hope it does just that.
I am currently regularly gigging around the city and surrounding areas at bars/pubs/cafes, and perform at various venues and events.

I'm pretty low maintenance. I can play totally acoustically, or just need a place to plug in my mic and guitar (or can provide my own).
