I am a professional jazz musician who keeps himself busy with live performances and studio sessions throughout the Central Texas area. I graduated with my Master's (UT) and Bachelor's (UNT) in Jazz Studies, and have been fortunate enough to study and perform with some of the world's best jazz musicians. I am also a jazz educator who has served twice as an adjudicator for state wide jazz guitar competitions and has travelled nationally to serve as a teaching assistant for jazz institutes.
I ask for one short break per every hour of musical performance.
I ask not to exceed 90 minutes of performance without a break.
I need at least one power outlet.
I can perform a certain setlist by request when given enough notice.
