What to expect

My goal is to make sure patrons have fun
I can perform originals and covers
I can do solo, duo or full band
I often tell stories of the songs which people have told me over and over again they enjoy
As a veteran of Nashville, Key West and other places, I have learned to read the room and get people engaged unless the request is for me to just do background music
I can travel to gigs and have plenty of equipment for small and large gigs
You get someone who is positive, upbeat, and genuinely enjoys making people happy and having fun
I particularly do well with crowds that like Jimmy Buffett, John Prine, Paul Thorn and I bring the sunshine vibe

Influences and inspiration

I am often described as a cross between Nashville and Key West. Jimmy Buffett to John Prine with a little Paul Thorn thrown in. However, I do cover songs ranging from Ray Charles, Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, John Lee Hooker and many more.

Setup requirements

I generally don't need anything extra unless I am travelling by plane to the gig
