SEEKING

ABOUT

I'm an experienced multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and vocalist. I currently perform solo and play in a cover band, but I am interested in an acoustic duo / trio cover situation that can play smaller venues where full band is not appropriate.

I'm ALWAYS interested in opportunities to write and perform original music with others.

I do live sound, have multiple digital PA systems, have an in home recording studio and rehearsal space. I play most anything with strings and frets and I love to sing and harmonize. I just love making music and performing. Having fun and feeling the groove. These are my motivations.
