DESCRIPTION:
Hello Folks
This letter is in regard to performing at your business and as a performer in general. I am a singer/songwriter who has learned, practiced, played, and taught for 30 years. I have a formal education and studied various artists so that the skill level I bring to your event, lounge, or stage is well honed. My first instrument is finger style acoustic guitar but don't let that deter you from knowing that I am very much at home on an electric as well. Most venues I have performed at are solo with an electrified acoustic guitar, vocals, and usually playing a hybrid of 60's, 70's, and 80's top 40 tunes as well as some tasty originals. I grew up playing blues-rock, rock, folk, folk-rock, a little country, and jazz. I usually have a good mix of covers and originals. My unique style is percussive, rhythmic, finger style, improvisational, and very accomplished. When I put in a bid to come play on your stage it is because I have done enough research to know that I feel confidant, relaxed, and up beat. If I've submitted a bit with the band it is usually a 3 piece with myself, drums, and bass. Whatever the occasion and whether solo or with the band I will be there on time sober and ready to perform with the highest quality and showmanship. I live in Seattle, Washington since I graduated as a nontraditional student from the University of Idaho in 2001. While going to school I studied music and performance at the Lionel Hampton School of Music. I wrote and arranged for pieces as diverse as Dance Theatre, Live Theatre, Ministry, and Movement Studio. I also taught guitar my students include Wes Weddell and Josh Ritter, both very accomplished musicians. I have been playing lately with a very eclectic group that includes Dominique Rafael on Bass and Sheldon Miller on Percussionist. The sound is a blues based rock with a little funk, jazz, and Latin sounds. Currently working together as a hot new groovin trio and they all support each other on their various pieces to accent the song writing styles. Very groovy! Very danceable!
