ABOUT

I've been writing songs for over 30 years. Right now besides pitching my serious country songs to other artists, I play open mics in Maine. I usually perform my comedy songs at the open mics. It's great to see the audience laugh and enjoy my music. It would be great to find a partner to perform with at these open mics. I'd love find someone who would help me do like a Smothers Brothers routine, where we play funny songs and tell a joke or two between songs. Could be male or female. I'd prefer a partner who is between 35 and 60. I play guitar so it would be great to find someone who plays either bass or hamonica or banjo or another insturment that would sound good with my guitar playing. If you can sing that's great, too, but not necessary. I am not interested in doing covers or playing in bars where people don't seem to listen. Unless, we did a sing along folk song or something like that. Mostly originals in venues where people do not talk or drink while you're playing. Venues where people are there to listen to the music. So, as a duo we would play open mics, etc...There would not be much paying gigs in the beginning, but if we put together a great act, we could eventually get some paying gigs where we are booked as an act.
