About.
Years of listening to Garrison Keillor and a yearning for a simpler time, birthed a love and a longing in Monte for; Small town America, Family life and a desire to paint sonic pictures of life in the country where time seems to stand still. These themes dance through Monte’s smart lyrical melodies that will get you singing, clapping along and possibly even bring a sentimental tear to your eye.
A lifelong musician, family man, country boy, lover of Jesus, and storyteller, Monte delights in entertaining an audience; whether its crooning Swing and Jazz standards, singing songwriter stories, entertaining the kids or leading people into an atmosphere of authentic worship. Monte feels right at home behind a microphone with his guitar.
Monte performs with his band “The Situation” as well as with the swing, jazz and blues project “The Miles and Monte Show”. You can catch monte on Sunday mornings at FaithHouse and you can even see him perform solo on occasion.
Monte currently teaches music privately at Coffey music and in several private schools. He also leads a local jazz ensemble.

When he is not helping to make music or ministry happen somewhere you can often find Monte in his favorite place, at home with his wife and their three children.
