Biography

I'm an accomplished guitarist, pianist, vocalist, and overall musician. I've been playing guitar since I was 9 years old, beginning with classical and then teaching myself different styles. I am also adept at performing American Standards on jazz guitar. I am proficient on the piano and bass as well, but my first and truest love will always be guitar. I perform regularly, solo and with different bands. My shows have sold out theaters in Colorado, Tennessee, California, Massachusetts, and Mexico. I have also headlined with Renee Armand and her brother, guitarist Rick Armand. I have many years o ... f recording studio experience and I am also a talented orchestrator. Read More

Experience

The experience I provide for any given booking depends on the booking itself. My performance at funerals differs very greatly from one you will see when I perform at a wedding or party. For performances I have given onstage, people who have attended often tell me that they were moved to tears more than once during the show, and that the way I presented the music evoked emotions they didn't expect to feel.
