Hi my name is Kid Lucky I am a vocalist and I do a lot of a cappella. I have worked with Tom Ritchford on Volectrix which was all voice hooked up to loopers and other electronic effects. Tom opened me up although I had sed electronics on my vocals before to a new way of using electronica in acappella. we had a falling out for a while bt we still talk and we plan to get together soon for a volectrix reunion. but he introdced me to soma amazing cats like David Linton and Christina Wheeler and all of Unity Gain. After that I changed my style of play and began buying some gear. First I purchased a line sixx delay modulator and then a digitech 2000 and a mixer. With a new viion I have started pushing a cappella into a new era of electronica. Michael Winslow is another a cappella artist that has pushed it as well - voice and electronics. I love the Line six, but I love the head rush better (Tom Can I buy yours?) Anyway I have a show coming up that my crew The Young Vant Garde is hosting at the Nuyoricans Poet cafe. The info is after this little introduction. I hope anyone in The New York area on this list will come by and check it out. I am new to this list but love the discussions already. I look forward to hearing others play. I also would like to hook up with other loopers and and link up for performances and recordings. Also any vocalists out there who wold like to hook up please e-mail me anytime at kid_lucky@hotmail.com Peace,
Kid Lucky
