Welcome to Tropzone's homepage!




Hi! Glad you could stop by my homepage!.
I am a singer-songwriter playing what is known as Tropical Rock music in the style of Jimmy Buffett.
I am the only Jimmy Buffett tribute band in Washington State and I perform all over the great Pacific Northwest where I have lived all my life.

Recent shows include a year and a half at The Bahama Breeze in Tukwila, The Steilacoom Pub, Jillians in Seattle, The Sloop Tavern in Ballard, The Island Cafe in Portland, The Tacoma Country and Golf Club, Twin Lakes Golf and Country Club, Roche Harbor Marina and Resort, Fair Harbor Marina, Tiki Joe's Wet Bar in Kirkland, BB McGraws, Gig Harbor Farmer's Market, The Quinault Beach Resort and Casino, Red Winds Casino in Olympia, Chips Casino in Lakewood and Bremerton, Tacoma Yacht Club, Fox Island Yacht Club, West Seattle Yacht Club, The Harbor Inn in Gig Harbor and at The La Palma Lounge in Lakewood.
The year 2008 was also my 5th Summer playing outside on the deck at The Tides Tavern in beautiful Gig Harbor every Sunday afternoon.

Corporate shows include Bayliner, Tiara Yachts, Chris Craft Owners Association, Bluewater Yachts, Ocean Alexander Yachts, NW Yachtbrokers Association, NW Marine Trade Association, Seattle Boat Show, Puget Power, Intel Corporation, NW Aeronautical Technologies, The Benaroya Companies, Pettit Oil Company, Legacy Partners Corporation, Sunstream Boat Lifts, Homebuilders Association of Kitsap County, Rainier Connect and the Franciscan Medical Group among others.

When I'm not working at my day job as a yacht broker for Sunset Yachts, I spend my spare time fishing for the elusive salmon, photography, sailing on my Catalina 25, gardening and writing music... and of course, performing that music.

I am also the Membership Director for the Parrotheads of Puget Sound which is an officially chartered member of the national Parrotheads in Paradise organization (see links below).

I am available for clubs, bars, house concerts, private parties, weddings and also corporate events.
