    Frequently Asked Questions


    Do you sing? No, I provide a purely instrumental, sophisticated live music background ambiance.


    Do you play requests? 

    My fingerstyle arrangements are detailed and complex. If you have a specific song in mind, let’s talk about it during our initial conversation. 

    While I can transpose many songs into a unique fingerstyle arrangement, please note that not all songs are adaptable to this technique.
