​

I work with many great musicians in various styles and can bring a hot, tight musical group to your event whatever the occasion may be, whether it is an intimate party or a big festival. I have performed at venues large  and small and throughout the United States as well as in India, China, and Nepal. A few places of note where I have performed are the National Geographic Grosvner Auditorium; The Smithsonian Folklife Festival; The Rubin Museum; Jomeoke Festival; The Embassy Series, The Nepal Academy in Kathmandu, Nepal; Wolf Trap Center for the Performing Arts; The Asia Society-Houston; The 9:30 Club in Washington, DC.; and The Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival.

 

I work regularly in duets, trios, and full band contexts in bluegrass, old time, Irish, and Swing jazz styles. I also give presentations and talks about traditional musics of Appalachian and/or Himalayan areas. I often can offer a focus on bluegrass and old time and swing jazz musics and the instruments used for them as well as some of the traditional musics of Nepal.  I have given presentations and talks at many universities, arts centers, libraries, etc. Click here if you might be interested to see some testimonials of my academic presentations.
