Much Aloha San Diego Native! I've been chopping keys since I was 9 and blessed to be surrounded by good music. Was raised on SOUL, R&B, and JAZZ predominantly. My father is a closet Kenny G & mom wails like everyday is karaoke of '69. I started gigging out of desperation to make chump change 4 years ago while going to school in Oahu. Ended up doing a lot of wedding & event work through Turtle Bay Resort on the North Shore of the island. Decided to come back to my ROOTS & I've been gigging my way around SD with residencies at Rancho Bernardo Inn, Solterra Winery, Inn at Rancho Santa Fe & some seasonal sessions at Petco Park's Members Lounge to name a few. What sets me apart from anyone else? The ability to make a ONE-MAN-BAND sound, the VERSATILITY between genres as well as instruments, & CHAMELEON to fit the color of any occasion.

Grand Poobah and the Four Chords

Hello! I'm Andy, the "Grand Poobah" of GigTown. Let me start by saying, I'm not a musician. But, I started playing the ukelele right before we launched the GigTown app in January, and I freaking love it. I take it with me everywhere I go, play it nonstop, and although I'm no pro, I'd like to think I'm passable. And I'm shameless about it too. I'll play it in front of whoever and I'll even sing. I'm not good at singing. But that's okay, it's still fun :) All that said, I'd love to come play some uke for you! I'm okay at writing silly corny songs with funny rhymes. I also have gotten decent at looping with my uke, uke bass and some vocals and can create kind of cool beats that are basically background music or ideal for "KAREUKE!" Note - Karauke only works if everyone at the party is drinking. It's totally free to book me, I'll play until you tell me to stop (I'll understand if that is less than 5 minutes into the gig) and I'll even bring a six pack of beer to share. If you drink it quickly it'll make my singing more bearable! My only requirement - there must be at least 10 people at the gig with GigTown on their mobile devices. No excuses! I don't care if your phone doesn't have enough storage! Go get a new phone!! It's cool if you don't want to book me too. Feel free to shoot me a gig request just to chat! Ask me for recommendations on legit GigTown artists, give me feedback on the app, etc. Seriously, I want to hear from you!
