Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

I used to have my own 11-piece cover band. We performed in front of 60,000+ people 2 times opening for Kool and the Gang, and Starship. I’m excited to embark on a new chapter in my artistic journey, inspiring hearts, awakening dreams, and nourishing souls through my original music and classic covers that evoke cherished memories.


What's your favourite type of event?

Intimate settings where the audience comes to be inspired by songs and storytelling,


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started gigging back in 1995 as the lead singer of a college cover band called The Confidentials. For nearly 30 years, we played 80 to 100 shows a year at weddings, bars, and city events all across the Midwest. In 2023, the band was inducted into the Nebraska Music Hall of Fame. After COVID changed the live music landscape, I transitioned into a solo singer-songwriter, blending my original music with classic favorites—and I’m excited to move forward, offering quality entertainment in a fresh, more personal way.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

The artist I’ve been most influenced by have been, James Taylor, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder. The greatest song of all time is impossible to say. I’m a person who believes music should inspire people to love God, love others, and never give up on their dreams. Songs that immediately come to mine or, man in the mirror Michael Jackson, you got a friend James Taylor, redemption song, Bob Marley, and harvest for the world by The Isley Brothers.
All of these songs are covering my set.
