About

I would love to build a beautiful mood for your ceremony and help your crowd rock out at the reception. I work solo as a guitarist and vocalist, but also work with another singer/guitar player. Other musicians may be added depending on avaiability and budget.

I am a guitarist and songwriter who performs live rock and blues, but also is skilled at fingerstyle guitar playing and has the ability to establish a subtle, relaxed mood when needed. I have played guitar over 30 years, and started performing regularly around calendar year 2002. I wrote the theme instrumental for my brother's wedding many years ago, and have written several short instrumentals that are ideal for background or ceremony music.

Whether performing solo or with other musicians and vocalists, I would enjoy providing the ceremony music or doing a full show for your reception.

For receptions, I can do a variety of blues and classic rock. The duo I am part of performs pop, country and other styles from popular radio from the 1950's forward. Some contemporary music can be included with advance notice.

The rock and blues includes selections from Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, John Mellencamp, B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Cray and others. The pop duo includes selections from Roy Orbison, The Eagles, Elvis Presley, Glen Campbell, George Gershwin and many others.

Please contact me for more information.
