The audience can expect a laid back atmosphere that leaves the crowd open to having a pleasurable experience. This is no rock show but can be kind of vibe.

Mainly love songs are the top hits and feel good tunes. Songs about going out to the country side with your beautiful lady and your ride singing and dancing underneath the glow of a blood moon lit night sky making love by the meadow with the power of two lovers and a great vibe. Otherwise, chillin on a backroad headed to your favorite honey hole looking to catch a big ol' bass and rays of sunshine on your back while the wind sings a lullaby that puts your mind at ease so your soul comes alive to a subtle peaceful breeze

That is pretty much what I do!

Brewed and bottled in the Sonoran Southwest of Tucson Arizona, I have become a part of this desert landscape with deep roots from the Midwest settled here in the Tanqueverde Valley. I am a true desert boy and appreciate the Tucsonan lifestyle of the old pueblo. My music derives from my life in this beautiful state and have become a poet with words within my song writing to encompass contemporary country music I like to call Desert Country.

It is with this style of country music I have become an adventurer and began to play professionally as a solo musician in town. I have performed at venues such as, The Pima County Fair, Sullivans Steakhouse, Makers House, Gary Rays Texas BBQ, McGraws Original Cantina, Saguaro Corners, Thirstys, World of Beer, The Cowpony, Pearsons Pub, Sakura, The Station, The Hut, and Skybar to name a few. Also, I have done charities for 88 Crime, Tucson Police Department, Tucson Veterans supporting Veterans as well.

My adventure is only beginning and I strive to be more active in the community to entertain people and build connections in our region and beyond. With my music, I understand the pop culture of the industry and, therefore, learn songs the people want to listen to as well as performing my own originals.

My goal is to be a touring musician and to be cooperative and a role model for people in this amazing country. I love folk, blues and rock which sets the tone for country in me. My musical influences have been country giants such as Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Allan Jackson, George Straight, Jason Aldean and Eric Church, more contemporarily. I have undertones of grass roots, but mainly love original country music and that is exactly what I write in a Desert Boy kind of style.

It is with appreciation I thank you for any opportunity to perform at your venue and be a part of your culture. As a professional and person, I will strive to be as successful as I can with your offering.
