I play, loop, and sing traditional jazz tunes set to themes of Western Swing, Gypsy Jazz, and Standard Arrangements. The tunes are all family/business friendly and the presentation is lush and full despite a minimal set-up (6-9 square feet). I can provide PA ranging from 50 watts to 1500, depending on the size of venue. References and accolades available on request.

As a solo acoustic act I require a small foot print of stage area (10' x 10') and a single power source. I have scalable P.A. systems (quotes available upon request) that can accommodate everything from a smaller indoor situations to larger outdoor staged events. My style marries well with parties, weddings, and celebrations.
Here's a short sample song list of some of the tunes I'm currently performing:

Born in New Orleans, LA to a family of singers, actors, and performers, I started performing at the age of 7 and haven't stopped. Having engaged in everything from musical theatre to touring bands, I currently use modern looping techniques to bring favorite standards to light and give them a fresh new approach that retains the familiar, pleasing tones of an acoustic guitar and baritone vocal. I play and sing tunes mostly standards from the 30's, 40's, and 50's with a small compliment of popular modern tunes and a few traditional sounding originals.
Two plug 120V AC power source for 1000 watt P.A., or, I can provide a battery powered set up in the form of a smaller 40 watt system (useful for situations where power is otherwise unavailable). Shade or cover is required if event is held outdoors.
