Scott If Im being honest I offer constructive critisizm, but judging by your questions in the original post you have a long way to go to achieve a professional Vocal/KB OMB Act which is very difficult, BUT, its not impossible if you diligently practice, go watch other Top OMB acts, & most of all become an ENTERTAINER [which is an art form in itself] which includes....Memorizing everything, lyrics & music so you can look at the audience when you sing & not a book or your KB this is imperative.....EYE CONTACT!
Plus learn to RH comp and not play melody lines while you sing utilizing many instruments !
Killer vocals could take years of practice & not everyone is a singer....& to mix it with playing KB could take even more to perfect to a live stage performance level where people pay good money to hear you. Record yourself constantly and listen to yourself improvng all the time. The audience will truthfully tell you what they think, ALWAYS PLAY WHAT THEY WANT.."NOT"..WHAT YOU WANT....there is no magic formula, you have to create your own recipies that work for You....
sorry to be so straight forward but I take my craft very seriously...good luck
