Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I only require a standard electrical outlet. If playing outdoors, I prefer a covered area (rain/sun protection). Can bring own cover if communicated in advance


What information do you require about a venue?

General information. Is there power? How many ppl? Etc


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I provide a 2000w JBL Prx 1 Array PA system. I also have very basic background lights. I rarely use them.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

Negotiable

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

I was the Headliner for 2 days at the 2022 Delaware Taco Festival.
Best venue was when I was a weekly performer for 3 summers at The Ocean Club Tiki Bar in Cape May, NJ.


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing outdoors. Especially by or on the beach.....or within view of water.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Played in bands at PSU, then around the Philadelphia area for 20+ years. Went solo acoustic in 2014.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Queen hands down. But also love Bob Marley, The Police, Ozzy and so many more.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I can be set up in about 20 minutes. I have a very low profile.
Sets are typically 40-50 minutes but can be tailored to fit the venues needs: if a longer set with less breaks is desired, no problem.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes!!!


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

I submit a set list prior (which includes alterates.)
Client has final say.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Energetic, fun


What sets you apart from other acts?

My arrangements are unique. I enjoy quirky mashups such as Bob Marley and Louie Prima. I Iove to pick songs that don't initially seem like they work acoustically, but they do. Of course I encourage everyone to sing along!
