My Journey into
Live Music in Iowa.

My path into live music began when I taught myself to play acoustic guitar shortly after graduating from Iowa State University. I was heavily influenced by singer/songwriters from the late 60s and 70s as well as grunge and alternative bands from the 90s and early 2000s. In addition to performing a broad range of cover songs from the past 50 years, I am also writing my own music and will share a few of original songs in my sets.

 

When I’m able to connect with an audience at live show, the shared experience is a reminder of what inspired me to first pick up a guitar. I look forward to an opportunity to book a performance at your business or event to help create a vibrant atmosphere with a few classic songs.

During every live performance, I am reminded of the exceptional power of music to connect us.
