Music That Fits the Room

Some events call for quiet solo guitar in the background. Others need a trio that can bring more energy while still leaving room for conversation. I work with each client to put together the right group and repertoire for the event, from wedding ceremonies and cocktail hours to corporate receptions and private parties.

Ensemble Options

SOLO
Intimate and flexible. A good fit for ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinners, galleries, and smaller gatherings.

DUO
Add upright bass, voice, saxophone, piano, or another instrument for a fuller sound while keeping the setup compact.

TRIO
A guitar, bass, and drums trio is my most versatile group for receptions, corporate events, parties, and larger spaces.

QUARTET+
For larger events or when you want the music to play a bigger role in the evening.

Need something different? Ensembles can be customized around your event.

Repertoire includes jazz standards, the American Songbook, bossa nova, modern jazz, and select contemporary songs. Special requests can often be accommodated with advance notice.
