I have been playing piano for over 35 years, professionally for 20. I play most styles, blues/rock/pop/jazz/etc. I have been involved with live music and bands for over 20 years. I've toured all across the US and part of Canada as well. In 2002, I was the CMA (Country Music Association) Instrumentalist of the Year, an international annual competition held outside Nashville. (yes, I play country, too, hehe!) Recently, I have spent the last 10 years playing in Mazatlan, Mexico. I play 7 nights a week in high season (winter, 6 months or so), up to ten shows a week playing for everything from Bed and Breakfast brunches to hosting jazz/rock jams with other professional players here. In the summers, I gig in Manitoba where I have great connections musically. I play there as well every night I'm available. I've also done alot of studio work, and have 13 albums I am currently recorded on in circulation, though many of those are my own music.
I will be on Kauai from the 11th of May til the 25th. There I've sat in many times with Jon Rivera and his group at various locations, Keokis, the Hyatt, etc...also, with Randy and Jeff one night at Tahiti Nui...also at Trees lounge, and with many others, some local bands on the south side of the island, etc etc. Basically, I just love to play...so any opportunity for gigs/sitting in/jams/etc are greatly appreciated!
