Good to know
What to expect
Which format you pick changes the night quite a bit. Solo acoustic is storytelling and voice, good for a Sunday session or a smaller room. The duo fills it out. The full band is Southern blues-rock played loud, made for late nights, festivals and venues where people came specifically to hear live music. Across all three the sets mix his own blues-rock and roots material with covers picked on purpose rather than pulled from the standard list. Strong vocals do most of the heavy lifting, and he works the crowd rather than staring at the fretboard.
On the day
Solo and duo bookings ask almost nothing of the venue and fit into most spaces. The full band needs more: a PA that can handle a live band, three vocal microphones, a drum kit or the floor space to set one up, power on stage, and foldback or in-ear monitoring if you have it. A full technical rider is available, so ask for it and pass it to your venue early.
Performance options
Solo acoustic suits intimate rooms, private events, Sunday sessions and anywhere you want music without volume. The duo adds a second guitar and voice, which lands well in bars, breweries and mid sized functions. The full band brings live drums, bass and two electric guitars for a proper high-energy blues-rock and roots set, best in live music venues, at festivals and at bigger events. If none of those quite fit your night, he'll put something together around what you actually need.
