About
Music has always been part of my life. Rather than bedtime books or stories, my parents and I sang together as a child learning hundreds of songs by ear and by heart on both the ukulele, piano and the guitar.
I also have learned that music can make or break a meal, event, party or special occasion. Creating the right ambience is vital. Music and sound can, and should often be in the background, but can from time to time even take centerstage. It is this Nexus of sound, that I create. And it is why I have earned the nickname “Mr. Ambience”.
I want to work with you to help you create the perfect moment for you as host and your guests, leaving a lasting impression that will be talked about long after people return home.
I am fortunate enough to have had four different careers, successfully retiring from all four in time to discover a new mission for my life. My mission now is to enjoy music by helping people to enjoy music.
Additional booking notes
I can provide my own Bose PA system, microphones, and sound that can easily accommodate an event up to 200 people.
