Meet the Act

I started playing piano when I was 9 years old growing up on a farm in Oklahoma. It has grown into a love and passion of theatre and performance. I traveled the world onboard cruise ships after graduating undergrad with a degree in music and grad school with a performance degree in Musical Theatre. Since then, I lived and worked in NYC before starting a 5 year journey with "Million Dollar Quartet" as Jerry Lee Lewis and their original Chicago production. A national tour followed that as well as some time spent in Las Vegas.
Following the closing of MDQ, I performed a quirky production of " ... Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" where I played Elton John as Pharaoh. That inspired me to pursue a tribute act as Elton John. My wife is a brilliant costumer and coupled with some of the best musicians I know, we have built a show I am very proud to perform.
Coupled with performing as Elton, I was offered a job as music director of the Las Vegas concert production of "Heartbreak Hotel" at Harrah's. We made the move to Las Vegas and have since started the Jazz Trio group "The Sidecars" and perform regularly with "The Old Fashions" and at the Downtown Las Vegas Piano Bar, "Don't Tell Mama" as a pianist/singer. My Elton show has grown into being known as "Wonderful Crazy Night" and we are regularly sought after for corporate entertainment events and concerts for regional theatres. Read More
