Overview

Solo Classical, Jazz or Jazz/Pop Guitar - with a repertoire of classical, jazz standards and my own arrangements of 70s 80s and 90s music in the Jazz Style. I can also perform as a duo with a vocalist or violinist upon request. Acoustic or lightly amplified - perfect for soft background music or for the main event. Past clients have noted me as professional, on-time, courteous and talented.

I am a full time musician with over 20 years of experience performing anywhere from private events and small venues to large concert halls.

Sam played some fantastic versions of 80s music from our youth! What a surprise to hear an acoustic instrumental of Our Lips Are Sealed while we were eating dinner. We all recognized it, but it was not intrusive. We couldn’t have asked for a better musical guest!
