LIVE MUSIC IN OUR DINING ROOM
Whether you’ve seen my solo gig or are just checking me out in general, here’s a short bio of who I am. I’ve been playing since the mid eighties either in bands or duos or solo. It’s been a lot of years since I’ve played solo – since the late 90’s. Why? Because I formed a band called Beyond The Pale that was an incredible band and a great bunch of guys. This band ended up being so much fun that I abandoned solo work. I also formed a duo with one of my BTP mates that also became very successful – The Foggy Duo. But I’ve always missed the quieter, intimate interaction of playing solo so I decided it was time to re-introduce solo gigging to my musical palette.
Playing solo, my aim is to serve the song. A song is a pretty sacred thing when you think about it – especially from the singer songwriter perspective. So I’ve gathered a set of great material that I’m excited to play for you. This includes classics like James Taylor, deep cuts like Jesse Winchester, and tunes by bands that have left their lasting mark on me, like The Band and The Grateful Dead. And to push myself a little I even include some melodic jazz tunes.
So that’s what you’ll hear at the gigs – the song is the thing and if you think likewise we’re gonna spend some quality time together.
