Actual Music Live Music for all events.I am capable of performing, as a solo entertainer, an unusually wide ranging repertoire because of my versatility on guitar, piano, and vocals. Being an accomplished arranger with a vast library of charts also allows me to lead a ten piece orchestra as competently as a trio or quartet. As a teen-ager, taking private guitar lessons from George Benson prepared me for my musical career.

Are you a singer of instrumentalist with a song idea? I can help you turn it into a finished product. Many people make the mistake of paying for high priced studio facilities when what they really need are great arrangements. Fancy hardware and software is no substitute for musical expertise. You may have just a melody in your head or some chords written out - or you may have more specific ideas about grooves or instrumentation.
Enjoy the process of vocal development, stop fighting your voice, and learn how to stretch your comfort zone. Working on two areas: voice building (expanding resonance and range, breath control etc.) and repertoire (you pick the songs), I am very flexible as to the amount of lesson time devoted to either.
