Blues, Gospel & Soul Singer, Saint Ranson

A full out, foot slapping, hands clapping show!
A commandeer of a crowd and soaring vocal performer.
You can expect someone who will keep the audience engaged through performance and crowd participation. Although, I tend to lean more towards events with a louder, crisper and controlled PA system, I also can sing in much quieter environments like weddings and jazz events.

Hey GigSalad! What's up?

My name is Saint Ranson, an experienced performer with over two decades of singing and performance new to the New York Area from Los Angeles where I spent time busking, performing and all things stage! I truly believe that my natural purpose on earth is to bring people together for a good time using my voice and musical ability. I am a member of a band here in New York where I am the lead singer and we are currently in the process of recording a bunch of original stuff. I generally have band practice every Tuesday and Thursday but can be flexible should opportunities arise. I have attached my song list below. I do have a microphone and my own speaker should there be any event I am invited to that does not have a live band OR I can connect with fellow musicians who I can bring along with me. I have also attached a couple of audio samples that may be a little outdated and do not show my real vocal capacity (as it has grown a lot over the months / years).

Help me to make my dreams come true as a full-time singer performer by trusting me in helping bring your event vision to life. I love blues, rock, soul, gospel and country music. My vocal range reaches up to a B4 full chest voice (which is pretty high for a male singer, lol). My musical inspirations are Sam Cooke, John Legend, Prince and Tina Turner. I look forward to meeting and working with you. I am also available to audition or jump on a video call should you be interested =)

Here's my song list that I usually sing when I'm busking. I can go for almost three hours with a 20 minute break between sets. These songs are in no particular order. Obviously, I like to start with the lower, slower songs first then end with the upbeat, higher ones. Here ya go!
