Hello , My name is Kirk. I am a singer/songwriter.
I have been nominated by Al Bowman from the LA music awards for best independent album and male vocalist of the year. I only say this so that you might take me seriously. Otherwise, I would never have brought it up. I write Rock and Country and am very interested in writing for films.
I will be at the nomination show at the Whiskey on Feb 25th. I have been writing forever and would just like an opportunity for you to listen to some of what I have written. I have a contact# for Sara Peddicord. I will try to talk with her.I will have CD’s and Press kits with me of both rock and country at the show and can stick around that Friday to drop off press kits if I need to. Our CD release party is back in Vegas on the 27th and would need to get back for that. but again would love an opportunity to just have someone listen. so far ,so good. The film industry is an avenue i would like to submit my music for. Thank you for your time and patience. Kirk Hulshoff myspace.com/zombieshakerbox
