| FOR ADULTS - Volunteer banquets, social events, elder care facilities, churches |
I would love to share my songs, talent, joy and laughter at your next event! Each program can be a half hour, 45 minutes or an hour in length. Guests are encouraged to participate with my inspiring singing, instrument playing and toe tapping fun. I will also share humorous tales from my thirty years of performing throughout the states for children and adults, including my appearance on "OPRAH". My favorite comment came from a resident at Sterling House in Ithaca, NY, " You did something no one else has ever done. You got everyone to stop talking! You are truly an entertainer". |
When performing for senior groups I bring back memories of the songs they loved to sing and the folk songs made popular over the years. They'll find themselves singing along to "Don't Fence Me In," "God Bless America," "You are My Sunshine" and "The Red, Red Robin." Next thing you know, I pull out my banjo and everyone is smiling, singing and clapping along. I believe we never are too old to enjoy "playing" and with the utmost respect and intention I involve my audience to the point where they cannot help getting caught up in the performance. My energy and fun-loving spirit is contagious! |
In the past I have worked as a music director at the Unity Church of Sheboygan and at the North Shore Gathering. (www.northshoregathering.com) I've enjoyed singing in several bands over the years playing every style of music from jazz to bluegrass and folk. I have given concerts at many different venues, singing songs I have written and my favorites from all musical styles. Recently I provided special music for Sunday services at the Unity Church of Arlington, TX and the First Unitarian Society of Ithaca where I am currently employed as the Religious Education "Minstrel". I am available to be the guest speaker for your Sunday service or to sing one or two songs during your Sunday service or for your special event. |
