I have been playing acoustic guitar/piano and singing for over 30 years. For the last 7 years mostly playing regularly at Assistant Living facilities. My repertoire for those gigs are mostly folk and older sing-a-longs. I have found it to be great side gig. I also have a long standing coffeehouse residency on Sunday afternoons here in Marin county. I love musicians who told stories with their songs and the songs had not only great melodies, but had great meanings that touched people souls. I don’t see that music being performed live much anymore. I really enjoy digging up some old standard from that era and trying to recapture the songs as they were meant to be heard in an acoustic setting.
