Musician Information

Professional solo entertainer with a full-band sound. Perfect for Weddings, Receptions, Parties, Charity Events, Clubs and Restaurants. Minimal space, electrical and travel requirements. Each show is tailored to exactly fit your needs and certain to please the most discerning clientele. Solo Entertainment - What I Offer --------------------------------------- A polished, professional entertainment experience that can provide the same (or better) sound than most full bands. Benefits include: ) Full-band sound with only one performer ) Very consistent sound and presentation ) Appropriate volume for the venue ) Minimal space requirements for setup ) Minimal electrical power needed ) Minimal travel and hotel requirements "What kind of material do you perform?" My catalog contains a couple hundred hit songs that are evenly spread between Rock, Pop, Country and include material from the s, s, s through present. I provide appropriate material for anything from an elegant Wedding Reception to a "get down with it" birthday party to a headliner act at any corporate, charity, or sponsored event. My clients have said that my presentation will work for practically any age range and I work tirelessly to provide exactly what your guests want; an enjoyable evening. My instrumentation is usually live vocals and guitar, paired with my professionally-produced backing tracks. For Wedding Ceremonies, I usually provide piano music. Other instruments and/or singers are available upon request. I'm here to serve and will provide exactly what you want. "What are your credentials?" My musical credits are diverse and include + years on The Grand Ole Opry, numerous major Artist credits, large concert venues, Network TV/Radio, Weddings, Receptions, Birthday parties, Corporate meetings, Tradeshows and countless other private functions. You name it, I've entertained there. "How do you get all that sound with just one guy?" I start with songs that have been "hits" for the artists who originally recorded them, then record the band parts at my home studio; drums, bass, keys, backing vocals, etc. After recording, I add the new song to a laptop computer that has special performance software. The computer helps me to instantly fill any song request. When a guest asks for "Doobie Brothers" I can hit a few keystrokes and it's ready to roll. It makes for a seamless presentation that keeps the music (and the fun) rolling along. This software also displays song lyrics, allowing me to invite guests to take the mic to "be a star". Including guests into the performance is a sure-fire hit and it works, every time. Just ask my clients. "What equipment do you use?" I use the finest sound system available, made especially for Solo Entertainers, the "Bose L System". Of all the sound systems I've used, this one wins hands down. The system is extremely compact and melts into the surroundings. For lighting, I typically bring a light tree with a sound-activated controller. This gives a great little light show that rounds out the polished, professional look and sound that today's audiences demand. Details are crucial in entertainment and I try hard to make certain everything is absolutely perfect for my clients.
