What to expect
At a typical performance, you'll get a great mix of solid acoustic rock, with strong vocals and clean guitar. I can keep the mood more mellow for quieter events (think background music, with softer guitar and vocals), or go more up-tempo for livelier events/parties. When it comes to more private events (like weddings), you'll get professional and reliable sound and performance.
I like to arrive about an hour before the scheduled start time to set up and try to get the best sound possible. Following the events, I tear down quickly and cleanly.
About
I've been performing as a solo musician for the past 25 years. I've performed at small concert venues, bars, restaurants, clubs, backyards, private homes, churches, etc. My music selection spans about 50 years of rock, pop, alternative, and folk music. I try to gear my song selection to the crowd I'm performing for that day. I can provide a list of current songs for those hoping to make requests as well. When it comes to more specific events like weddings, I'm also willing to learn new material upon request.
Additional booking notes
Being a solo performer, I don't require too much space to set up. A stage is always preferred, but I can work with an area of about 8'x8'.

Setup requirements
Mostly just need access to a clean power supply. I do not provide my own lighting, so if your space is dark and you'd like me well lit, you would need to provide lighting as well.
