SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Violin, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Fiddle, Drums, Dobro, Bass Guitar, Banjo, Acoustic Guitar.ABOUT
I'm a full timer, I play lounge acts, weddings, a two hour dinner theatre, musicals for pro theatres and schools, jazz cafes, and anything in between. I'm always looking for more gigs, more places to play, more people to play with, anything and everything. I've been playing since I was 4, and over the years had waaay too much free time, so I picked up anything that would make noise and played with it.

I did this with some friends a couple of years ago, so the quality isn't great, but it's still a fun song. I'm playing rhythm guitar, the acoustic lead, and singing the guy part (doubled).

So, I couldn't sleep last night, so I sat around goofing off with a First Nations Drone Flute, and came up with this, which I recorded in my home studio. I like it, but it's the product of very little sleep and even less conscious thought.
CALENDAR
Past Events
The Bardstown Episcopal Church is hosting a series of benefit Classical concerts to raise money for a new roof, or something. Sunday, Nov 4th, 3PM the series is kicked off by Nathan Bowman, playing a variety by Beethoven, Debussy, Rachmaninov, as well as jazz standards and the public debut of his latest sonata. Admission is free, with a suggested donation of $10.
The Pink Door, 10 PM, Friday Night. Think Who's Line is it anyways? I'll be playing backup piano for these guys, who are absolutely phenomenal. Good times, I think it's a $5 cover.
