What to expect

My music repertoire is extensive. I understand the importance of making people feel comfortable in their environment in a potentially awkward social setting. My music can fill the holes in a conversation and not leave anyone out.

I play every Saturday evening at the Millcroft Inn and Spa in Alton, Ontario.
