About Me

Just back from record audiences at the Chicago Maritime Festival and an incredible time at the Folk Alliance conference in Memphis where I had good singer/songwriter response as well as having the honor of being part of Andy Cohen's "Folk University" and "Tradstock" with Tracy Schwartz & Ginny Hawker, Enoch Kent, Chico Schwall, and the Ebony Hillbillies. Upcoming travels include tall ship captaining in Chicago, a tour West, and a Canadian stop or two in 2010."...RESONANT VOICE, HEARTFELT LYRICS, AND SOLID INSTRUMENTATION..." ---LILLI KUZMA "FOLK FESTIVAL", WDCB-FM
