Multi-instrumentalist with vocal capabilities. Not a country or rap fan but will play anything an audience pays to hear! 30+ years experience from front porch to festival headliner. Classic rock and Irish pub music are what's paid the musical bills lately. Just coming off a year-long run with a fantastic bunch of musical pros, and eager to see what happens next!

Everything I can get my ears on. If you don't listen to everything, how do you keep an open mind musically and know what you like to hear and what you like to play?

EQUIPMENT
I play Martin and other acoustic guitars with LR Baggs installed, custom made concert cittern, Oscar Schmidt EB-5 banjo, handmade custom mandolin. I play an Epi Les Paul goldtop on the electric side. Keyboards are all virtual, controlled by Gig Performer on a racked Mac mini. There may be a couple more joining the list soon ... :)
PA is an XR18 mixer driving JBL EON 15" cabinets. 10" monitors and 15" bass cabinet driven by Crown amps; I use AlienEars IEM. Feedback Destroyer in the rack. Mics are mostly 58s now. Line 6 wireless on all instruments.
All snakes and cables too; this stuff is portable, working, and 100% paid for.
