about

Café Allongé consists entirely of my original music! Some songs are re-interpretations of songs from my various band's repertoires you may recognize. However, a healthy amount of the songs are brand new, written during quarantine, and released here for the very first time! I play every note that you'll hear on the album on a wide range of stringed instruments. These include Gypsy Jazz and resonator guitars, steel guitars, ukuleles, and baritone guitar. I even threw in a little plectrum banjo and banjo ukulele this time around!
