Live Performance

Where the music lives.

Solo acoustic guitar and vocals crafted to elevate the atmosphere of any venue — intimate, engaging, and always authentic. Whether you need a subtle ambient backdrop or a set that gets the whole room singing, the performance fits the room.

Where I Play

The right sound for every venue.

Every performance is tailored to your venue and your crowd. Sets are built around the room — its size, energy, and what the evening calls for. No two nights are exactly alike.

🍷

Wineries & Tasting Rooms

Live acoustic music elevates the tasting experience and encourages guests to linger, explore more bottles, and return. Pairs beautifully with both weekend tastings and private vineyard events.

Craft Breweries & Taprooms

The craft beer scene thrives on community and atmosphere. Live acoustic music turns a taproom visit into an event — driving weekend traffic and social media buzz.
