I have performed at: Colleges, Concert Venues, Bachelorette Parties, High School Graduation Parties, Nursing Homes, Hotels, Weddings, Bars, Wineries, Charity Events, Music Festivals, Private Fundraising Events, and more! While I am primarily a solo act, with enough notice I can provide a full band for any event.
Expect a night filled with positive vibes, uplifting music, and lasting memories. I aim to bring the best of my abilities to every stage I am performing on. If I am background music for a party, you'll appreciate me being there, but I won't be in your way. As a featured artist, I have over 6 years of experience touring some pretty cool places in America with some notable names, and my passion will be on full display.
