This is what i've done for much of my adult life. i wish to. share this gift. iVe played weddings and wakes, celebrations and fundraisers, birthdays and Irish dance shows.
History
I've played Irish music inspired by my immigrant father and find music to be inspiring, and contemplative, entertaining and for me somewhat life affirming. I have lived a full life as a Marine with four combat deployments and flew EMS helicopters for 20 years. I've seen a lot and wish to share my perspective on life and loss.
Artistic Vision
Creating a moment when someone will be touched and reflect. Music is a powerful tool to challenge one's perspectives as well as entertain.
Traditional Folk/Ethnic Artform Statement
I play trad Irish music and am well known for my work and sought out for that type of music.
