Contributions Toward Solutions

​

I realized a long time ago that my creative energy could be more impactful if I endeavored to not just pay it forward (through donations) but I could also PLAY it forward by performing a special shows, building musical instruments for raffles, and putting a little sweat equity into projects where all the funds go toward addressing causes that are close to my heart such as food insecurity, addiction treatment, education, animal welfare, and supporting the arts.

​

When I’m not on the road, I’m often found tinkering in my wood shop building guitars which I auction to benefit various non-profits.  To date eight hand-built Roeboy! electric and acoustic guitars have been donated, and many fund raising gigs played.

​

I’m always on the lookout for opportunities to play it forward.  If you’ve got a gig for a special cause, please reach out.

​

Meanwhile please consider giving to one of these amazing causes:
