Biography

I am a guitarist, singer, and songwriter, and I am a Compassion Music Artist Ambassador from Dallastown, Pennsylvania. I have experienced the impact music can have to reach people. With God’s help, I now serve to make a difference in other people’s lives through the music that I offer.  

I perform at churches and community events. My style of music is acoustic guitar and vocal.  I present familiar hymns and gospel songs such as Amazing Grace and Swing Low Sweet Chariot, original songs such as To Know You and My Journey Has Just Begun, and instrumental guitar music such as A Mighty Fortress is Our God and This Is My Father's World. And I love to play Christmas concerts!  

I have been influenced by hymns, gospel music, and Contemporary Christian Music, while Keith Green and Phil Keaggy are the two biggest influences on my own Christian music. I’ve released 4 CDs and have been formally trained by Don Frey and Sam Swank (guitar), Pati Wolfgang and Summer Garner (voice), and Amy Wolter and Tom Jackson (On Stage Success).  

My biggest influences when I was growing up were The Monkees, Jim Croce, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, and of course Elvis! And the music from my church includes hymns and southern gospel music.   

Below are some musical presentation options I can provide for you.  

Musical Presentations.  

1. General Concerts - I play both vocal and instrumental music with traditional hymns and original music. My work is tailored to the church’s needs and preferences. I am experienced with leading music in small churches where I bring and set up my own audio equipment and larger congregations in which I work with the worship team and music director to plug into their system.  

2. Special Music – I play special music for churches that include original music and arrangements which have been highlighted and nominated by various award presenters over the years for creativity. While I am rarely asked to create and provide original music written for a specific church or event, I would welcome the opportunity to talk about this with you!  

3. Christmas Music – I present original and traditional Christmas programs from small set pieces you can incorporate into Advent activities to my own full cantatas that offer an alternative to churches without time or resources for purchasing or developing their own music. Christmas is my favorite season! You will find I have an extensive range of music and styles to share my gifts with you.  

4. Holy Week and Easter Music – I share a variety of original and traditional music during Holy Week and Easter that allow churches to create a deep and meaningful worship service with something different each time to offer their congregation. This season is often not as scheduled as Advent so I have more availability, especially for mid-week services or Holy Week worship.  

5. Compassion International – I play music now as a Compassion Music Artist Ambassador. These concerts are a mission outreach, giving your church an opportunity to match music with giving. During my playing, I present information about sponsoring a Compassion child and offer a unique opportunity for attendees to choose a particular child to care for while sharing about the children I sponsor.  

I have traveled extensively to perform in many states including Pennsylvania, Maryland, Tennessee, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, West Virginia, Virginia, Colorado, and Texas. It is my privilege to play for various events locally and nationally.  

In the past, I have also toured with the Reach Out Singers and played in several church praise teams as I’ve focused on my skills and heart for my calling. My hope is to connect with my audience as I continue to expand my music ministry.  

To do that well and faithfully, I have retired from my teaching job to follow my call to music ministry. I want to grow together with you in your faith as Christians and bring peace to people's souls as David did when he played the harp for King Saul. (1 Samuel 16:14 - 23)

Winter Update Feb 1, 2023  

Hello Friends,

In some places, Old Man Winter is flexing his muscles. This week a big ice storm is gripping the southern USA. Later this week, cold air from the north will attack the northern states and Canada. There has been a lot of snow and dangerous conditions across the USA and Canada. And weather-related flight delays. 

However, in my area, southern York County, Pennsylvania, near Dallastown, we have had a relatively mild winter. We have had very little snow and ice. Although the temperatures got cold several times, the frigid cold weather never stayed around too long.

My daughter lives in San Antonio, TX. They have not been able to get out the last two days due to the ice storm. The other day I talked to her, and it was in the 70s (Fahrenheit). Crazy winter weather!

Well, enough with the weather report. I want to share some music things with you as well. I am going into the studio and recording a new vocal album. The album would only be available on my website. One single will be released at a time until I build it up to the whole album. 

The first song is called Regeneration. It will also be the title track. Regeneration is about Christ transforming us from our old life to a new life in Him.

The song is based on 2 Corinthians 5:17, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." King James Version of the Bible. 

The first chorus lyrics are:

I need Regeneration, 
Deep inside my soul,
I need to be a new creation,
I need something to make me whole, make me whole! 

The second chorus's lyrics are. 

He gives Regeneration, 
Deep inside my soul,
Made me a new creation, 
Christ's love has made me whole, made me whole! 

And one last music update. For the Easter season, I created an album of instrumental songs called The Resurrection Instrumentals. It has three tracks and they are available to download for your price. 

Click here to preview the album.

 I hope you are all surviving winter, and may God bless you all!

Thanks,  Keith
