About

I’m a developer for a large computer company and play music for fun.  This site is solely about the music.  I set it up because people I’d meet at various musical outings were asking how to keep in touch. If you’re one of those people, hop over to the Contact page.

My primary instrument is the guitar, though I also play ukulele and some piano and mandolin. Currently I’m playing mostly acoustic music — some covers and some originals.  Often I’ll use a nylon string classical guitar when playing out, though sometimes I use an electric guitar.

I cover songs by Sting, U2, Keane, Queen, Muse, The Cure, The Beatles, The Cars, Elvis Costello, Jobim, Nek and others. I might also throw in a few jazz standards or the occasional renaissance or baroque piece depending on my mood and the audience.
