My father enjoyed playing the saxophone and guitar, so with the popularity of the guitar in 1956 I too became interested. My first performance in 1957 was for my high school assembly program. I have continued to entertain, singing and playing the guitar locally for birthdays, anniversaries, community and senior events. I entertain with Old Country, 50’s, vintage classics & favorites ranging from Johnny Cash & Elvis Presley to Perry Como.

I've been a local area musician for over 40 years and have performed in bands, duos, and solo, currently performing on a regular basis with "Iron Mountain" as a singer, guitarist, and 5 string banjo picker. I also play with the "Delaware Dulcimores" as their guitar accompanist, including occasional banjo work. My music ranges over a hundred year span from the 1860's to the 1970's including, but not always limited to, the following categories: Folk, Old Timey, Country, Bluegrass, Cowboy, and Rock n' Roll (old, like me).
