   About Karl Dietel
.. ...Karl Dietel has made the move from cover band to national act to budding solo career. One part classical lessons, one part music theory, (in which he earned a liberal arts emphasis from Boston University) and the life experiences of playing 48 states over the last 10 years provides the spectrum of music Karl draws from when he plays. The New Jersey native has over 20 independent cd credits to his name ..boards, bass guitar, harmonica and as producer. He has recorded with Bernie Worrell (P-Funk) and Garth Hudson (The Band) and shared the stage with artists ranging from Brian Vander Ark (Verve Pipe) to Trey Anastasio (Phish). He is best known as the keyboard player for the road-warrior touring band The Samples, having spent the last six years in a tour bus playing over 100 shows a year throughout the United States. He recently released his debut cd, “Please Allow Me to Introduce Myself,” on which his melodic sensibilities and The Stranger-era Billy Joel influences are on full display.

PROFESSIONAL LIFE COACH SEEKING MUSICIANS

I'm a Professional Life Coach seeking Vocalists/Musicians/Bands that are interested in Improving their lives on any level that they see fit.


Do you want to become a better performer?

Do you want to play more gigs?

Do need to focus more on marketing?

I'm looking to Help Individuals or Entire Bands at all levels of success who are aware that they have the potential to be whatever they want to be, but just might need a little help focusing in on exactly who it is they want to be, and/or how to be that person.


I am a huge fan of all genres of music and I have managed numerous bands over the past several years.


I've worked with many well known producers, writers, musicians and engineers and might possibly have some great contacts for the right client.


I'm seeking Bands/Musicians who are willing to be coached and willing to invest both the time and effort that it takes to get where you want to go.


I look forward to hearing back from you and helping you bring out the potential that we all know is within us.


Thanks for reading.
