What to Expect
If hired, I plan to provide a great showcase. My music is my reality and a lot of people's reality. I use theatrics in my showcase. Things such as sound design, to make it seem as if you are really there with me. I also, want my fans to leave my show with a great feel of what beautiful music really is.
All I need to know is where to arrive and how long of a performance is needed? Also, if there is a need for me to hang around after my performance to speak. I also, wouldn't mind including in my performance some of my successes and failures. I have been to the Grammy's, won many awards, and my career is going great. Any encouragement and advice I could give could also be included in the performance.

Additional Booking Notes
If there is a place for a mic or 2 to be hooked up, maybe a keyboard, that would be great. I can perform acapella as well. We can definitely work out the details.
