His music blends an upbeat groove-driven guitar sound across a wide variety of rock, blues and country tinged tunes that speak of personal, social and human issues.
Full dinner menu is available during music and the vibe is music designed for dining, conversation, and maybe a little dancing if the mood strikes. It's also Thirsty Thursday. Enjoy $5 Happy Hour specials all day!
