About / Biography

My personalized set lists and thoughtful performances are what clients remember. I have been performing for well over 25 years and look forward to working with you.

My cover tunes include a range of material which includes new and classic rock, 90s and alternative music, blues/blues rock and even a few oldies. I enjoy all of these genres and write my own blues-influenced material that has won a few local awards.

Portable sound and lighting is provided for every performance.

I am available for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinner parties, backyard parties, marriage proposals, corporate functions or intimate events.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

I require a performance space of approximately 8’ x 10’. Require 1 standard electrical outlet in close proximity to performance space.


What information do you require about a venue?

I need an accurate street address to ensure and load-in specifics to ensure a timely arrival and setup.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Lighting and Sound are part of every performance.


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

Compatible Apple Playlist will be provided during breaks.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

One of my most memorable gigs was a Celebration of Life. It was a joyous occasion and I left there feeling like one of the family.


What's your favourite type of event?

I love playing all types of events. I love wedding ceremonies because they’re so personal. I also love a great backyard party!


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

I started playing in my first band in high school. Eventually, gigging in local bars and private parties. After many years, I finally made performing my full time profession.


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

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young are the reason I picked up the guitar. Tom Petty is one of my favorite artists. Greatest song of all time? That’s tough. However, I do open most performances with “For What It’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield. It stands the test of time and gets everyone’s attention.


Why Music?

Music is a healer. It brings people together. It connects to your heart, your mind and your soul. Why not?

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

I typically arrive 90 minutes prior to performance time for load-in and setup. Most of my events are 2 or 3 hours in length, with 1 or 2 short breaks, respectively.


Are you happy to perform outside?

I love performing outside, provided there is proper cover from the elements. A flat, stable performance area and close proximity to power supply is best.


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

My performances are always based on my client’s musical tastes. Each set list is specific to each event. Clients love this. Specific song choices are available. Ask me for details!


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Clients love my heartfelt singing and guitar playing. They also compliment me on my volume not over powering more intimate events. On the flip side, I know how to turn it and for a great sing-along!
