HammondPlayer + Musician in Fenton, MI

SEEKING

ABOUT

Accomplished keyboardist with 30+ years of experience performing professionally. Currently working with the band After It All, I’m always looking to work with talented musicians who are committed and reliable, have positive attitudes and manageable egos. I’ve had the pleasure or working with many great musicians from all over Michigan, and the USA. I enjoy playing a wide variety of music; oldies, classic rock, blues, funk/soul, jazz, disco, Motown, pop/dance, 80's, and country. I’ve played many clubs, festivals, weddings, tribute shows, and other events.
