Armed with 2 guitars, baritone vocals, claw-hammer banjo, and fiddling, singing, and flat-footin ' (a form of clog-dancing), he serves his audience an "acoustic buffet" of traditional American and original folk, ol time mountain music, bluegrass and gospel tunes, as well as coal mining songs of Northeast Pennsylvania preceded by their origin.

    KJ’s been labeled the “Niche Performer” by many who have invited                               

    her to perform at their functions. For conferences, coffeehouses,

     civic club banquets, house concerts or festivals, she does seem to

    have a song for everyone!

    KJ’s written and co-written farming songs to represent the hard    

    workers of the land, she’s written political action tunes to get certain

     groups inspired to go to bat for their causes. She seems to know

    her audiences even before she’s met them and provides an

    enjoyable – and seemingly personal – concert to each one who

    attends..
