I perform both solo and as part of an Americana duo , and perform acoustic sets comprised of fairly obscure covers, interspersed with the occasional original. I perform alt-country, folk, and a few rock and country classics. I'm also an experienced open mic host.

Gig Length: 30 - 240 minutes
Languages: English
A mix of touching, funny, and (if the audience seems receptive) irreverent songs.
Rather than introduce myself with a lengthy bio, I tend to cut to the chase, jumping right into the set list, and saving the "who am I?" monologue once the audience seems more engaged - like after most members are done eating. I include occasional funny vignettes about family life and my aviation career.
I'm a helicopter pilot, returning to performing in public in December 2013 after a long absence. I cover somewhat obscure alt-country and folk tunes, interspersed with occasional originals.
None.
