Post Description
Pops has been entertaining a small but ever growing group of avid fans for some twenty years. He?s performed in various venues around the world. And has fans in Europe, Asia, Hawaii, and throughout the continental USA. He?s been part of several duos/trios, but now performs solo as a performing songwriter, with a penchant for ?acoustic blues?. And while up-tempo blues is his favorite style, it?s only part of his repertoire. Listening to any of his recordings, one can hear dashes of folk, jazz, country, and a tidy little genre called Southern Fried Zen Mojo, a phrase coined just for him.
He?s a true independent artist, and instead of joining the mainstream, he?s forged his own unique approach to the music industry. Though he?s a member of ASCAP, he releases his recordings independently via his own publishing company, Icknob Publishing. He rarely, if ever, plays bars or lounges, but instead has targeted acoustic listening rooms and the performing songwriter circuit, especially house-concerts. Pops also hosts the Shenandoah River Songfest, a large annual event for performing songwriters, and The Wetlands Series, a small, intimate event that takes place about four times a year. His CD sales come mainly from his live shows, and are augmented by on-line sales at CDBaby. As a rule, he doesn?t tour. Indeed, he?s turned down a couple of offers for overseas tours. He tries to perform about twice a month, and is quite happy with that pace.
