I have played at the best clubs in Boston. I have also played with and warmed up for national acts. In addition to being a piano and trumpet player, I am also a vocalist, bassist, songwriter, arranger, and producer. In the mid 80s, my own original progressive rock band, called Mirage, has gotten not only airplay in Boston but also favorable reviews in the local arts and entertainment papers. Returning back home to the Indianapolis, IN in 2008 (after playing all over New England in the Boston music scene for nearly 30 years), I have made a good impression on many local musicians and club owners in the area. I am currently playing with a very successful and popular cover band. I can give private lessons. I am accepting students of any age, with or without experience in playing the piano or trumpet. I give lessons at my students' homes, making it very convenient for students, and their parents, if they are children. Let me help you reach your own personal musical goals, taking advantage of my unique and varied experience in music (a total of 45 years).
