We call our musical duet ... Hipnautical
We play a sort of Eclectic Adult Contemporary Music of easy listening & interesting songs, blending complimentary guitar styles & artful Celtic harp mastery interwoven with tasteful vocal harmonies. My wife Bobbie Jo plays the Celtic harp, I play the guitar & we both sing. We don't really play dance music but people often do get up & move around a bit while we play, but most often the audiences are transfixed on the alluring nature of our intriguing songs. Our music consists of soulful melodies, deep lyrics blending smooth vocal harmonies & tasteful musical arrangements. We are basically an acoustic duo allowing the people to enjoy the venue with the unique sounds of Bobbie’s Celtic harp, her amazing vocals & our artful musical arrangements of both original & intriguing cover tunes.
We have quite a number of original music CD’s professionally recorded from when we lived in the Hollywood & Los Angeles areas. We also have over 400 fascinating cover tunes including over three sets of nautically themed songs, all of which we set up with intriguing real life stories from our recent sailing adventures which draws the audience in.
We draw our talent from a life time of performing our music & the experiences of decades of sailing & the tens of thousands of miles at sea along with experiencing the soul of the Pacific that has touch our souls from the countless but never forgotten islands we have visited on our sailing adventures.
We have just settled into Maui after sailing around the Pacific islands for over three & a half years performing our music everywhere we go. We’ve played on the beach for local islanders, we have been performing guests of honor with several island chiefs, performed ‘Cockpit concerts’ on our sailboat to as many as 20 dinghies all rafted up to our boat, we were very well received at the Bora Bora Yacht club & invited to stay on at the Bora Bora Hilton to perform long term. We’ve played at just about every island we came to including in New Zealand, both Samoa’s, Tonga, Fiji & a very special wedding event on a very remote Atoll in the northern Cooks called Suwarrow Island, the first every wedding on Suwarrow.
We are inspired to perform our music on here on Maui with the soul of our Pacific journeys in rhythm with the spirit of Aloha.
