About My Sound
What you hear here is what you'll hear live.
I perform solo on my jazz guitar, but I bring along a whole "orchestra" to back me up. I have spent (literally) months arranging backing track with which I perform. A wide variety of instrumentations and ambient sounds. Every piece is subtly unique, which is good for your event. (And good for me as a performer!) My work can help energize your event, without a lot of excess volume, without being pushy.
My guitar sound has been compared (favorably, I believe!) to either Jerry Garcia or Carlos Santana. (I'm blushing.) Since these comparisons have happened more than a few times, I guess my guitar sound is a cross between Garcia and Santana--while playing Ravel and Vivaldi!
As sophisticated as a classical guitar, but way more fun!
