I'm a young, energetic, interactive performer and singer/songwriter playing acoustic and/or alternative rock tunes, both that I've written and covers that I know crowds will love. I feel like I can adapt to entertain any crowd, any venue. If you want fun, easygoing, interactive musical entertainment, give me a call!

Gig Length: 20 - 120 minutes

Musically, you can expect either a solo artist performance or a band performance, depending upon the venue and the event. Acoustic or full-band set. Length of set depends upon the event. Upbeat, energetic performances with many fun, sing-along songs. Crowd interaction. Extremely suited to entertain crowds under 30.
As a speaker, you can expect a relatable honest presence. High levels of enthusiasm, passion, and energy. Clear, strong, vivid communication. Can be easygoing or intense, depending upon the venue. If in a church setting, heavy reliance on Biblical passages and themes.
