I currently lead a band called Blue Marsh that plays in the virginia eastern shore area for parties and concerts. I feature flat pick guitar similar to doc watson's style, I also play fiddle, Irish Tenor banjo, mandolin, and electric guitar/ rock blues country. I have played jazz in the past with the late Charlie Byrd. I was the opening for a recent Charlie Sizemore concert, last fall at the Chincoteague Center. Opened also for Road Side Cafe this past April also at the Chincoteauge… Show more I currently lead a band called Blue Marsh that plays in the virginia eastern shore area for parties and concerts. I feature flat pick guitar similar to doc watson's style, I also play fiddle, Irish Tenor banjo, mandolin, and electric guitar/ rock blues country. I have played jazz in the past with the late Charlie Byrd. I was the opening for a recent Charlie Sizemore concert, last fall at the Chincoteague Center. Opened also for Road Side Cafe this past April also at the Chincoteauge Center. I was featured artist in the famous poet (nominated for poet lauriette of Va. last year) Robert P. Arthur's play Roses are Red Lillies are Fair. Play was commissioned by the Governor of Virginia's Art fund and performed in Williamsburg Va. I wrote the final song of the play sang by the whole cast and this song was later nominated for state song of virginia by the Virginia Poetry Society. I am Available for private parties, recording sessions, concerts. I am always looking for other musicians to jam with or if you have a missing member of your band and need a fill in I can consider that also. I want to get out and play is my goal and have fun doing it. Show less
