Although my site is dedicated to the craft of songwriting, I do cover other artists. In my view, one of the best ways to learn how to write a good song is studying and learning the songs of other great songwriters. My playlist covers a wide spectrum of singer-songwriters and artists including James Taylor, John Prine, Hank Williams Sr., Jackson Browne, Merle Haggard, Ray Charles, Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, Willie Nelson, Tom Paxton, Joni Mitchell, Bob Wills, Sons of the Pioneers, Buddy Holly, Guy Clark, Steve Earle, CCR, Eagles, Jim Croce, Van Morrison, Beatles, Everly Brothers, CSNY, Allman Brothers and a long, long list of other bluegrass, folk, country, western swing and gospel standards. This is not a comprehensive list but hopefully gives you a flavor of other material I cover, along with my own original material. I perform as a solo artist, but also in a duo, trio, or full band configuration. This allows me to customize the number of musicians needed for an event and stay within a client's budget. Please reach out to me to discuss how I can help supply music for your event. Here are three bands that I play in and it is possible to book the full band or individual players. A link to each band's website is supplied at the bottom of this page.

(1) NonProphets - The NonProphets are a straight-up Rock, Soul and R&B band, where we bring out the heavy guns.

(2) Backstreet - Backstreet brings an eclectic Americana Folk blend that covers about every song you HAVE NOT heard and many, many standards you have heard. One band member knows all the words to Alice's Restaurant!

(3) Sassafras - Sassafras is a Bluegrass band and they cut their teeth on Bill Monroe and Flatt & Scruggs, but appreciates and can also play more contemporary Bluegrass and covers many different genres from Western Swing, Folk, good "old" Country music, along with contemporary artist.
