What's new
Thanks for visiting philround.com. In these pages you'll find information about my performing history, my schedule of performances, the Snake River Band and Snake River Music Agency. I'm looking forward to hearing from associates, fellow musicians, clients, friends and family.
After more than 20 years of extensive touring, I now perform primarily in the northern Rockies area around my home town of Jackson Hole , WY. When not performing i enjoy family life in the mountains with my singer/songwriter wife, Beth McIntosh, and my two sons, Wilden and Rainer.
Playing music for people is what I love to do and I feel fortunate to do it for appreciative clients in and around this special part of the country, known as The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. I also teach private guitar, voice, and music lessons to interested individuals in the region.
I'll try and update this page with musical happenings in my life and with The Snake River Band. I look forward to performing live music for you next time you find yourself anywhere in the vicinity of the Greater Yellowstone region.
