About

I play all the traditional wedding music including bridal marches, ode to joy, canon etc as well as many other non traditional choices. I can do a ceremony on classical guitar and/or a cocktail hour playing jazz or any combination thereof. Versitility is my specialty.
I play a self-invented 9 string guitar on which I can play music unavailable to 6 or 7 string players and with a much fuller sound than ANY other solo guitarist. Mainly a jazz player, performing solo arrangements of Porter, Gershwin, Ellington, etc; I can also include virtuoso classical guitar pieces such by Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven, etc; pop tunes by the Beatles, The Yes Band,etc; and Atkins style arrangements by Chet, Jerry Reed, Tommy Emmanuel, etc. This mix is very entertaining and exciting at any event. I have issued 7 CD recordings; have been featured in many music industry magazines such as Guitar Player, 20th Century Guitar, Fingerstyle Guitar, Just Jazz Guitar, Cadence, Coda, etc; and have performed on several local and national TV and Radio shows.
I am a regular performer at the Classic American Guitar show, The Philly Guitar show, The Chet Atkins festival in Nashville, the winter NAMM show to name a few national events. I am always willing to work with my customers to give them exactly want they are after at their own event. I have performed with jazz greats such as Charles MaPherson and the legendary LES PAUL.
