What to expect

I'm as comfortable being the center of everyone's attention as I am being the background noise to people having dinner. I intentionally don't have "setlists" as I like to feel out what a particular crowd wants to hear and go from there. People can shout requests at me (I won't always know the song/artist, but if I do I'll play it), or if it's a more formal occasion I am open to requests beforehand (as long as I have enough notice). I can be as quiet or as loud as needed as well.

About

Solo musician from Columbus, Indiana who specializes in variety. I've played music for over half my life now, and have played in both bands and solo settings (in case anyone wonders, drums were/are one of my main instruments). I love music from all different times periods, although I get asked to play older stuff more often. I pride myself on being as professional as I can be, and like pleasing the crowds in front of me.

Additional booking notes

The most important thing for me to know is what the size of the room I'm playing is. Any photos etc. are helpful, as are general dimensions of the space. Aside from that all I need is sufficient access to electricity (it's always helpful for the venue to have extra extension cords, power strips, surge protectors etc).

Set list

As a rule I don't have "set lists." I try to feel out what each individual crowd wants to hear. I can take requests (to a certain degree). I play pretty much anything from The Beatles up to the present day. I am open to suggestion with enough notice as well.
