I play all original acoustic instrumental percussive finger-style guitar, with roots in rock and heavy metal, but you will also hear hints of flamenco, classical, and jazz based chords and rhythms.
I've released my first full-length album "Aviator" March 11th, 2017, recorded with finger-style mastermind Don Ross. I've played multiple house concerts, as well as a consistent gig at a local ice cream shop. In the near future I will also be playing a bit for WIDR FM in Kalamazoo, MI.
