ABOUT

Gigging musician playing Solo Acoustic Shows . I Play strong rhythm and lead parts throughout my gig with a good amount of lead guitar work, strong vocals, and Harmonica playing to match my style.
At home I practice acoustic blues, bluegrass, fingerpicking exercises, and slide in open tunings but I spend more time playing and practicing on the electric guitar. My electric guitar playing is as good or better than my acoustic picking. My Electric styles range from clean twangy country, to Classic style Blues to harder Rock including faster playing techniques and Southern Rock including Electric Slide from using dynamic picking methods like hybrid pickling, flat picking, fingerpicking, string muting for slide and volume swells, . I know a very wide variety of music from and am open to jam with any other guitarists, bassists, and drummers interested in forming a group to do a few gigs. I am also available if you need someone to sit in on a gig or few playing rhythm or lead Acoustic and Electric Guitar.
Besides the Guitars, I also play the mandolin in all different styles of rock,country,celtic genres.
