I'm a singer-songwriter/solo acoustic guitarist from Gainesville, Florida. I consider myself to be a one-man-band and I can entertain all night with popular covers for folks to sing along too, mostly of the classic rock variety. I also dabble somewhat with jazz and blues, and can play instrumental as well. I can entertain for private parties, weddings, corporate events, and I'll take requests in advance for songs to play at the event, and may already have the songs in my repertoire.

Gig Length: 30 - 140 minutes
As a well versed professional guitarist,singer, and overall musician, I take my craft seriously. I sing in key, I play in time, and I mimic the key characteristics of songs I cover, and I have very dynamic original material. I engage with my audience and make it a goal of mine to eventually win everyone over in a room. By the end of the night, with just an acoustic guitar, my voice, a harmonica, and a couple effects, the party will be jumping as if a full band was playing for them. I can provide my own sound equipment for smaller rooms, and can handle operating sound equipment independently.
My current repertoire includes songs from: The Rolling Stones, Beatles, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Steve Miller Band, CCR, Van Morrison, The Doors, America, Led Zeppelin, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Flaming Lips, Allman Brothers, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, and more. I also have original material as well.
Van Morrison, Tom Petty, The Moody Blues, Sheryl Crow, Johnny Cash, The Doors, Rolling Stones, Dave Brubeck, Miles Davis, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Eric Clapton, Johnny Winter, America, Chris Isaac, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Kansas, Bill Withers, The Blues Brothers, System Of A Down, Neil Young, Wes Montgomery, Tenacious D, etc.
I may require extra sound equipment depending on the size of the event.
