Yes, there are 3 music services to choose from and build playlists with.
I have opened for Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, ZZ Top, Yes and The Beach Boys in Vermont at the Champlain Valley Expo. That was a great experience. I have opened for Third Eye Blind, Kansas, .38 Special, Asia and Hoobastank at Rockin' Resort at Clay's Park in Ohio. I also closed for Theory of a Deadman there. Those are some great memories!
I love performing at all types of events, but being a part of the memories associated with a wedding is the best!
I have been performing live music since age 17 and have only been learning and growing for the last 23 years. I have played every type of venue from coffeeshops to large stage venues.
I have been most influenced by artists like Paul Simon, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, and John Hiatt. Peter Gabriel is my favorite performing artist. The greatest song of all time changes with my mood!
I can arrive between 90 and 60 minutes before a normal gig and be set up and ready to go by showtime. I normally perform a 4 hour show with one break after 110 minutes. During a 3 hour show, I play two 75 minute sets.
I have no issue performing outside as long as adequate cover is offered during inclement weather and power is supplied. I do ask for a flat, level surface to perform on.
Clients are welcome to send song lists over in advance and see what overlaps and what may be able to be learned in the amount of time before the performance.
Previous clients would describe me as easy to work with, a go with the flow kind of guy that doesn't play sad or slow music. Positive vibes only.
