ABOUT

Advanced and experienced violin/fiddler player and vocalist. I can follow anyone on anything, and you don't need to tell me what it is or what key. Fast learner, no rehearsal required for a decent performance (but rehearsals are of course imperative for the highest quality or long term projects). Available for paid gigs, studio session work, or serious collaboration/touring with the right band. Very punctual, responsible, reliable, transparent, respectful, and expect the same from my collaborators.

Seeking: Paid Local gigs or studio work between Partygrass tours. Not interested in speculation right now.
