Way too many to do justice, but the short list is...Harry Chapin, Elvis, Roy Rogers, Buddy Holly, Bruddah Iz, Roger Miller, John Denver, and anyone that can tell a great story with a song.

I sound like...me? Who else would I sound like?
Oh and sometimes Kermit the Frog.
Before The Uke was The Uke, he was Sir Bork!
I am an entertainer at heart. I love making people laugh, smile, and pee their pants. I play all genres of music (except maybe hip-hop, which doesn't really transfer well to the ukulele). I recently started playing music with Fred "The Duke" Hargrove, a phenomenal cowboy poet, singer and songwriter. I also perform as a solo act, playing music all the way from the early 1900's to today.
My original songs have been very well received, and I am having a lot of fun playing in front of adoring fans! I find a lot of satisfaction in writing original music, and people seem to like the story-song style I use.
So, if you like country, cowboy, folk, oldies, original, kids, campfire, or any other kind of music, I probably play something you like!
