I've been playing and singing for a long time; some songs for over forty years. Longer, if you count the ones I learned from hearing my mother play them on the piano when I was three years old.

A lot of the songs, jazz, pop and folk, are different from the "original" versions because they evolve as time goes by. This is the folk process and as it's been said, "It's all folk music."

To me, folk music is an evolutionary form and I'm delighted to be a small part of it.

I am a entertainer and believe in having the audience laugh as well as listen to my music.

I have been playing for getting close to fifty years now. I sing and play folk, old pop & jazz, and a bunch of other stuff. I do this with guitar, banjo, mandolin and harmonica with a lot of humor thrown in the mix.
