Will trade massage for show tickets
👉🏽 “Man, you saved me! Before the show, I couldn't turn my head to see the band (to lead them). You fixed my neck tonight!"
– Art Neville, The Neville Brothers, backstage opening for the Grateful Dead
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with musicians from Nirvana, Phish, The Neville Brothers, the SugarBeets, Dark Star Orchestra, The Sky Cries Mary, Polyphonic Spree, Leftover Salmon, the Eugene Symphony Orchestra, the fabulous Garcia Birthday Band, backstage at the Grateful Dead, and Saturday Night Live cast.
As a longtime guitarist and performing artist myself, I know the toll this work takes on your body. Shoulders, neck, hands, spine — they’re our tools, and when they’re jammed up, so is the music. That’s where I come in.
I bring 40 years of experience as a licensed massage therapist, with a deep understanding of the specific strain patterns that come from playing different instruments. I specialize in onsite chair massage in green rooms, right before or after the show.
Whether it’s:
🔥 Loosening up so you’re stage-ready
🧘🏽♂️ Coming down after giving it your all
💆🏽♀️ Relieving that weird tweak from your last travel day
…I’ve got you.
💆🏽♂️ I’m happy to trade massage sessions for comps to your show, a mutually supportive trade that honors both of our crafts.
