Paul was AWESOME! He was perfect for our small backyard family party for my dad's birthday! Great musician all around! Singer, guitarist and we really enjoyed the harmonica too. Paul was also great to work with. Fast to respond and communicated well with any questions we had. He brought a fantastic playlist with something for everyone. He even wrote an original and personalized birthday song about my dad. It was awesome! I would highly recommend Paul to everyone!

We had Paul provide music for a large-ish baby shower and we could not have been more pleased. Never having used music for an event like this before, I really didn't know what the flow should be. Paul was intuitive, very aware of the people in attendance, and did exactly what needed to be done. His playlist crossed generations. We accepted tons of praise on his behalf :-) Perfection!

Paul was amazing! Such a pleasant person and a wonderful and talented musician. He played for our wedding reception in Bisbee, AZ and the family was dancing and singing along. The kids loved joining him on stage to sing songs as well. It was really perfect.

Thank you Shawn & Maria! All the staff at the Hotel Tucson City Center were welcoming, professional and friendly. The facility with the olympic pool, the bar and restaurant, was a beautiful venue for playing music. The guests did enjoy a variety of music oldies, folk songs (many requested), soft rock, and other popular covers. I had a blast! Thank you!

What to Expect
I will create a musical program to meet your wishes based on genre, era, or other requests for your event that fits within my repertoire. If you wish some laid-back instrumental music to listen to, or maybe, as a sing-along… traditional, folk, folk-rock, soft-rock, maybe some original songs - love ballads, uplifting songs? You can expect passionate and heartfelt music, and an engaging and fun time!
About
I perform as a solo singer-songwriter singing songs from the ’30s and ’40s through today. With guitar, ukulele, and harmonica I provides a fun and engaging show with folk, folk-rock, soft-rock, oldies, some country, blues, traditional, and heartfelt original songs.
If you want dance tunes, songs for singing-along or some smooth ballads, I have a song for you!
Ideal venues are cafes, house concerts, community events, birthday celebrations, and other private parties.
Additional Booking Notes
I have all my own sound equipment for 100+ people. I would only need a reliable power source (electrical outlet) and lighting.
