About / Biography

I’m a solo acoustic singer-guitarist with one goal: to create the kind of atmosphere people remember.

I don’t just turn up and play a set — I tune into the room. I read the energy, feel the crowd, and adapt on the fly. Whether that means keeping it mellow and soulful or getting everyone clapping, singing, and fully involved — I know when to lean in, when to pull back, and what song fits best in the moment.

My setlist spans decades and genres — from heartfelt classics to upbeat anthems. Every song is chosen to connect, whether I’m background music for a wedding reception or the main event at a buzzing party.

If you’re after a live act that brings genuine connection, a great atmosphere, and music that makes people feel something — I’d love to play for you.
