Overview

I have been playing keyboards for over 10 years now; although I've been making music since back in the late 90's when I was bitten by the music bug in my middle school's band.

I've been writing music for about as long as I've been playing keyboards. I currently have a day job so I could only do weekend gigs, but I can play pretty much any piece of music you would need, provided I'm given enough practice time; my cold sight reading still suffers.

What to expect

Any client or audience member should expect a good show. No fancy lighting, no pyro, no extra flash. Just myself and a keyboard.

About

I was born back in 1985 in the era of hair metal. The doctors never expected much out of me at all, because I was born with Cerebral Palsy as well as having a whole host of other medical problems to deal with. I'm only here by the grace of God. The doctors thought that *if* I lived, and this was a VERY BIG if, that I would be in a wheel chair. They never expected me to talk, much less be able to do any of the things I enjoy today.

For anyone looking to have me play at their event, an event planner should expect ONLY that which I expect of myself: that I've practiced said material to play, and that I show up to the gig on time. Anything an event planner might think of beyond this, while not really beyond me, would be things which I've never even thought of, as I've not had the opportunity to play too many gigs.

Additional booking notes

since I'm just starting out, I don't have a technical rider of any sort. I would love to use a Yamaha Motif XF on stage, especially since my Yamaha S08 was stolen in '09, but since I don't have the $ to pay for anything like that, my rig only includes myself and my trusty Yamaha P-85 piano.

Services offered

Set list

hmm.... set lists. Normally I do cover songs, but again.... I'm kind of iffy on doing those because of royalties.... and again, I don't have the $ to pay royalties.

So that said, my set would mainly include a bunch of hymns, some classical music pieces, and my original body of work, albeit small.

Influences and inspiration

My influences are broad, just a few of which are: Bon Jovi, Mozart, Enya, David Nevue, Jim Brickman, David Bryan, Bach, Beethoven, Joe Bongiorno, Trans Siberian Orchestra, and Bach.
