ABOUT
Been playing Live Music since the age of 12. I've played all types of music, but primarily played Rock, Country, and Jazz in the local music/club scene, as well as Branson, Bourbon Street and Nashville. Have toured Nationally playing everything from Southern Gospel to Metal. Retired from Full Time Music and playing a couple of gigs a month. I can sing Background and harmonize or sing lead on some basic monotone stuff to give the vocalist a break, but I'm not a strong vocalist. It's just not my gig, but I do what I can to help.
