BIOGRAPHY
FUN
Drink & Navigate Island Life! For over two decades, I’ve been a professional Sunshine Billionaire story telling musician, known as the Barstool Sailor. My passion for the Florida Keys followed by a degree in history and education from UM, has lyrically tailored and created hours of unique original music. My music is a tropical hibernation of songs from a casual observer of paradise. I’ve enjoyed playing house concerts tours, tiki bars as well as fun festivals. Presently, as a long time Islamorada Keys Critter in training, I’ve lived, experienced and cared about the Keys as a bartender, kayak guide and full-time musician. I’m also an author of a cartoon coloring book called
The Adventures of Humphrey the Manatee.
