My audiences have always appreciated the songs and arrangements of my guitar music. My listeners like my music because it is soothing, exciting, relaxing, danceable. I always come up with songs that connect with all of the age groups in my audience.
I want my listeners to have a positive experience about my music. It's all about creating a party atmosphere that my audience can not create on their own.

This is the music I like – soothing, inviting and relaxing. Your guitar playing is so tasty. You seem to know very well that less really means more. The way your music mixes blues with jazz, soul and latin is so enjoyable. I would call it the old school approach – getting to know the basics and then more advanced stuff, getting to know the rhythm first. Young players don’t play like that anymore and this is a pity.
