The one-man cabaret

TRAVELIN’ MAN

A 90-minute musical journey through Life, Love, and Luggage. One backpack. Eight boyfriends. A software engineer who walked away from Silicon Valley, bought a $100 karaoke machine in Puerto Vallarta, and sang his way across two continents — telling the whole true story between songs.

Watch

The Puerto Vallarta debut — January 30, 2026

Filmed live at Catrina Cantina. A sold-beyond-target room, a live pianist, and ten songs from That’s Life to a Sweet Caroline encore.
