What do you love most about your job?
I really love what I am doing because of the positive atmosphere it creates. By concentrating on only the songs that everyone , of almost any age, knows and likes, people often end up singing and dancing. Even small children , who have no idea what the song is, love them because of the great beat. They actually do more dancing than anyone. As for the older age group, the songs I do that everyone not only knows, but knows the words to.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been doing this since I was about 13 years old. About 12 years ago, I thought it would be fun to increase my activity and focus on "goldie oldies". With a song list of about 250 selections and growing, most requests can be handled. I was inspired to do this because I have so much fun with people I am playing for.
Why should our clients choose you?
If they like the type of music I play, the way I conduct the gig is to maximize the enjoyment of everyone in attendance. It is all very informal and low key. People are even welcome to come up and sing.. I am totally flexible and when and where I will play - indoors, outdoors, etc. While I do a lot a gigs in public places like bars/restaurants, about half of my business has now become private events, like significant birthdays and anniversaries, block parties, charity events and fund raisers, and just plain parties.
