ABOUT

Acoustic guitarist and vocalist. I am a very experienced, skilled musician who started taking classical guitar lessons at 9 yo and have been playing ever since. I sing and play acoustic in a duo with a very good keyboard player. We would love to add bass and harmonies. Ideally, we would like to a bass player who can sing harmonies, but open to another acoustic player and/or percussion or maybe some other accents like fiddle or mandolin. We are playing every other Wednesday at a local cafe to build set list and fine tune our sound. Our next step is to find other venues to play.

We play a mix of covers and originals. Some of our current set list:
Karma Police-Radiohead
Across the Wire-Calexico
Forget the Flowers-Wilco
Take This Waltz-Leonard Cohen
Meet Me in the Morning-Bob Dylan
Crosscut Saw-Albert King
I Need You-Beatles
