I've played thousands of gigs in front of thousands of people.
I've been a resident of the Mahoning Valley for 20 years. I grew up in Geneva, Ohio and lived in Orlando and Fernandina Beach Florida as well.
I do over 100 gigs a year, music is how I make a living. It's challenging but rewarding all the same. I do a solo acoustic act playing covers and originals gigging around the region.
I've played the Mahoning Valley Rib Burn-Off several times. Party on the Plaza, Yankee Lake, The Wedge, Rockin' Resort in Canal Fulton, The Cleveland Hard Rock, The Agora, Peabody's, and too many bars to list.
This past year I played many private parties in the Greater Cleveland area as well as in Pennsylvania at the Lodge at Glendorn in Bradford and parties in Slippery Rock, Polk and the Greater Pittsburgh area. I also had a steady gig at Geneva on the Lake including the huge biker event, "Thunder on the Strip".
I'm fluent in many guitar styles such as shred metal, hard rock, rock and blues. I can do some jazz and country too. I'm also classically trained.
I'm very active with the local organization the Camelot Center. We give therapeutic horseback riding to the handicapped. I've volunteered with them for the last 10 years or so on and off.
My big plan for next year is doing a USO Tour which I am actively seeking to get my original music to a larger audience.
