January 15, 2019I was lucky enough to have caught a few of his gigs on Kauai. Very talented and widely versed. Felt like an old family member from our first meeting. Beautiful man inside and out. Much aloha

I get people smiling with my energy, positive attitude, my smile, and the pure joy of the music I play. Quite often it happens that I'll play one of the over 100 songs in my repertoire, and someone will approach me and say "That is my Favorite Song!" - There are no mistakes at my shows, only opportunities for happiness.
I started playing professionally 9 years ago. Currently I specialize in playing and singing music that is geared to get people excited to be alive. From "Amazing Grace" to "You are My Sunshine" and many hits in-between, when you book me you can expect to get professional quality vocals, guitar, and a smiling face. I love doing what I do, and am more than happy to share it with anyone willing to listen. Book me today and you'll be grateful that you did.
Currently performing acoustically.
I have my own microphone and stand and guitar cables - you provide PA system, or I can provide it (at additional cost)
