What to expect

You can look forward to a positive experience featuring beautiful songs from great singer/songwriters, done acoustically, with vocal harmony. Songs from the 70s through to the present. If there's a particular song you'd like me to perform, send me a note and I'll get it ready.

About

I began my professional music career playing keyboards, guitar and vocals with Sunblind Lion in the 70s in Wisconsin. We performed all around the upper midwest playing original music and opening for many national acts coming through the region. Sunblind was recently inducted into the Sheboygan County Music Wall of Fame. Since moving to California in 1980, I've played with various bands in LA and am currently doing a solo acoustic guitar/vocal gig which has been a lot of fun. For my day job, I've traveled the world as a video director and editor creating documentaries, music and other videos. My video work has appeared on ABC, CBS, NBC, A&E, Discovery, History Channel, MSNBC and SYFY (to name a few).

Additional booking notes

I have my own sound system but do not travel with lights.
