Pianist

Seasoned Performer
Arranger, Composer, Accompanist
With over 35 years experience in performing solo piano, or with my long-time musical partner/ bassist, Dave Duthie, I am comfortable playing small venues, such as clubs or private home parties, as well as larger venues such as music festivals, concerts, corporate functions, etc.
I’ve spent years building my repertoire and as a result have hundreds of memorized songs in an impressive variety of categories: Jazz, Ragtime, Contemporary Pop, Classic Rock, Standards from the Great American Songbook, Broadway, Movies & T.V., and even some Light Classical!
I have composed music for a documentary (Camp Adair, The Story of a World War II Cantonment a film by Brendan Rawlins) and for poet Emmett Wheatfall’s CD Welcome Home.
So if you are looking for a pianist to be the perfect background for your intimate house party, or a pianist who can pull together a small or big band for your outdoor summer event, look no further!
