  • Bio

    Available for hire: send requests to bzalisko@yahoo.com with "gig" in the subject line. I'm a solo singer/guitarist. I've been performing all my life and have developed a very experienced and mature stage presence doing all sorts of gigs from small coffee shops to weddings, to festival stages. I also play seven other instruments. I go to Elmhurst College now, but I'll be spending this 2007 summer at Argonne National Labs (Darien, IL), so I'll have plenty of time to do more gigs. If your a performer looking for someone to join you in a show, or if you have a performance space/bar/coffee shop that you think I would be appropriate for, please let me know. I'm also looking for all kinds of musicians/singers to collaborate with, so hit me up if you're interested. .. Peace ..Out...

    If you are male or female, singer, instrumentalist, or both, I'd love to jam and experiment. Possible combinations I would like to try out: Piano/guitar, acoustic guitar and drums, acoustic guitar and bass, Two guitars (not as likely), etc. Secondary vocals are fun too :D. Hit me up if ur game.
  • Influences

    James Taylor, Green Day, Beatles, Simon and Garfunkle, Stephen Lynch, Tenacious D, Ra, System of a Down, AC/DC, Arlo Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Jim Croce, Black Sabath, Chicago, Eric Clapton, Five for Fighting, Jet, Metallica, Mustard Plug, Psychostick, The Police... yeah, there's a lot of variety in the music I play, so I'm open to all.
  • Sounds Like

    I'm often told I have the voice of James Taylor, and my guitar playing is fairly similar. I specialize in fingerpicking, but I play virtually all styles. I also play my LP when I jam with a band and am equaly compitent with it. In short, I generally do solo, acoustic shows blending a mixture of unique arrangements, acoustic covers, and a little musical comedy.
