Idaho Falls Music Performer

Performing with various groups in the Idaho Falls area

It seems that whenever I play a show, I always get one person asking me "Don't you plan in so-and-so band?" It's true, I think I've played with the majority of the music groups in Idaho Falls and then some! I've performed either permanently or as a fill-in for the following groups: Rodeo Hippies, Straight Shot, Craig J. Green, The Bent Flow Trio, Stiff Richard, Riff Raff, Spunk Pharm, The Darrin Allen Country Steele Band, The Kevin Young Quartet, The Karen's Jam Band (aka Funk Mafia), The Snake River All Stars, Maiden's Eye, Acid Rain, Pedal to the Metal, Fortunate Son, Jazz House, Rukkus, The Eclectic Connection, Blood Dog, Nautical Sauce Posse, Ma Barton, and much much much more (my head is spinning too much to try to remember the rest)! Yeah, I stay busy and probably have the biggest and most diverse repertoire of songs in the state.

I am a permanent member of the Rodeo Hippies, a wonderfully diverse band that person classic to modern rock, country, blues, and whatever else people seem to like. You've probably also seen me playing eclectic jazz with Craig J. Green who is a wonderful and original guitarist in the Idaho Falls area. I also co-host the Thursday night jam night at Karen's Park avenue with Dan Mihlfeith of Spunk Pharm and drummer extraordinare, Chris Glanzor. Check us out every Thursday from 7:30-12:00 (shameless plug).

When I'm not out performing with the above mentioned groups, I'm always happy to fill in for a band. I've become very good at it and I'd like to think that most of the bands that hired me felt at ease after the first couple of songs. I work hard to learn set lists and I try to make the night go as seemless as possible. My reputation is just as much on the line as their's.You need a guitarist, bassist, or keyboarist? I'm the one you'll want to hire.
