About

Our group is capable of playing a wide variety of sounds, everything from Bluegrass, Acoustic music, Jazz, Pop favorites and Blues. We will match musical selections to your personal tastes.

Many configurations are available, from a duet of Guitar/Banjo and Upright Bass to a trio of Guitar/Banjo, Upright Bass, and Mandolin. If you desire a Jazz band the group will have Guitar, Bass and Drums.
I also play many weddings as a solo acoustic guitarist and have played a number of pop and classic love songs for brides as they walk down the aisle. I enjoy working with others to determine the best configuration and material to fit their needs. It is my goal to make sure the music is a part of making your event memorable to everyone involved.
