ABOUT

First, I am an amateur musician BUT I am a professional entertainer.

I’m a 60 y/o recent transplant from Philly … Guitar, Harmonica and can sing lead or harmony, can play (mess around with) keyboard, & mandolin as well. I do not play lead guitar. COVID has allowed me time to really get busy perfecting my skills and I am confident in my abilities and focus.
I’m drawn to vocal driven ballads and songs with harmony (Eagles, James Taylor, Everly’s, Jackson Browne ect.) and always thought my taste would be described as “Americana” meaning country & folk influenced rock music but that can be a very wide ranging genre. Like to play stuff from the 50’s & 60’s through fairly recent singer songwriter stuff. I do like pop music too.
I think it would be fun to form a band playing 1950’s to current, put an acoustic spin on stuff (think MTV UnPlugged) find some teammates and work on rock solid harmonies.
