He has shared stages and tours with Taj Mahal, Jimmy McGriff, Larry Coryell, Benny Golson and Russell Malone, and led acclaimed albums on Muse and his own Roni Music label, including A Guitar Thing, Flubby Dubby, and Standards and Other Songs. He is the winner of the 1996 Heritage International Jazz Guitar Competition.
