Biography

I grew up in a musical family and listened to a variety of world music, I studied upright bass privately in high school and attended music camps for double bass, and then I studied double bass performance in college, and performed for six years with the Asheville symphony orchestra, and as principal to multiple other orchestras in the area from 2006-2011 before I returned to Florida and learned Samba guitar and decided to record it in order to play steel pan solo over automated guitar accompaniment in order to facilitate fun solo gigs!

Experience

After extensive orchestral training and decades of experience performing professional upright bass, I have decided to gear my show towards solo steel pan act. For the last six years since returning to Florida i have performing primarily in the convention scene on multi instruments depending upon the demand, I range from fun steel pan, to sloppy rhythm guitar, to expert trained bass, to island djembe and percussion, but would prefer to play over my tracks and an acoustic pan is usually loud enough!
