Here are some answers to the questions I am most often asked about myself:
I am originally from Miami, Florida, and I started performing at age 5. My first gig was with a Calypso Latin band that played at my mother's restaurant in Miami every weekend. My instrument was the bongos, and I wore a little Ricky Ricardo suit, puffy sleeves and all. I became a full time professional performer at age 19, after completing two years of study at a college of the performing arts in Miami.
Since then I have performed thousands of shows throughout the world, and have made numerous appearances on television and radio. I have released four CD's, the most recent one being "Please Play Me" in July of 2010, which is a recording of Harp Guitar instrumentals of songs by The Beatles.
I will travel anywhere, I am easy to work with, and being a one man show I have minimal A/V requirements.
My comedy and music show consists of novelty songs, song parodies, sing alongs (often silly), and can be adapted to any age group or taste range, all in a super energized and highly interactive environment. I am six foot seven, I play a very unusual eighty year old harp-guitar, and I exploit these features to the fullest, making my show HIGHLY visual. In addition to my comedy music show, I am also a serious musician, classically trained, with a bent on jazz, traditional and blues music. But the focus of my show is and always has been "ENTERTAIN, AND MAKE IT FUN!". |
