THE FUNNIEST BAND IN THE WORLD

I saw a One-Man Band long ago in Munich and from that time on, what I witnessed there, standing before me was a symbol of freedom and the embodiment of the life I had always dreamed of.

My life´s directon was clear and laid out before me. A year leter I found myself in Barcelona, my banjo being my only company. Gradually, I began incorporating more instrumnts, a washboard, a mouth organ, and a kazoo. But I was longing to see other parts of the world, so I decided to leave for Australia. I was determinated to be the very best One-Man Band in the whole world. I continued to add instruments: a bass, a cymbal, a cow bell, and a sliding whistle, which I pitched by raising or lowering the neck of the banjo.

My next few years, consisted of only 2 season: Spring and Summer. This was due to my bouncing back and forth between Europe and Australia. My dream has, in fact, become a reality. I am free, I am well-known and making a name for myself as a One-Man Band. I have been to play in the U.S.A., Australia, Japan, New Caledonia and entire Europe.
