Overview
Hours of music, both covers and originals, are available in moments.
Pop, rock, country, east-coast, 50's classics, jazz standards, and pretty folk songs in eras ranging back to Cole Porter and forward to Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift.
I have all my own equipment to perform shows in living rooms, or massive halls, indoors, outdoors, with or without power availability.
When requested, my high-energy acoustic trio "The Dark Frames" can bring the full party for your outdoor event, annual party, or wedding reception.
You can learn more about what I do on my website.

Kim was so pleasant to communicate with when booking. He is extremely talented and was the highlight of our backyard wedding. He was willing to learn a few songs for us in advance and did a wonderful job performing them on the day of our wedding. He has an amazing voice! So many compliments from our guests. Thank you Kim!

Setup Requirements
If sound is provided, all I require is a DI to plug my guitar into, and a microphone on a boom-stand.
If production is NOT provided, I can supply all sound and lighting for a large hall-sized event, both as a solo act, or with my band. Easy access to power is a plus, but I can provide that too if necessary.
