Asked what he envisioned in now his full-time musical career Albi said, "I'm 41 now and like what I'm doing and can make an OK living and the best part is I enjoy entertaining."
"I like meeting people, playing for happy hours for weddings, birthday and social parties and I do clubs, restaurants and bars," Albi noted.
His style of music includes classic rock and he likes Elvis Presley and Albi said he loves older music."I add some five new songs every couple of weeks to keep my show entertaining and keep it fresh."
