San Antonio, TX
I’ve been a professional Guitarist for over 30 years with over 1000 performances in the Central TX area. You’re in capable hands.
I own several systems. I determine which on is more suitable for an event once I know a few things such as: The size of the venue, the approximate expected number of guests as well as whether I will be performing indoors or outdoors. I have been able to provide my own sound system for events up to 750 people.
The only thing I’ll need is a single power outlet as well as a Regular-Height Armless chair (multiple chairs will be needed whenever I perform with some of my musicians). For outdoor weddings at a park, in the hill country or a beach, I own a battery operated speaker which will work well for an attendance of up to 150 people.
Yes, that’s not a problem at all. That happens very often and what I do is have two separate sound systems set up, this way I’ll just need to walk over with my guitar.
Yes, I can provide a microphone (I can also provide a microphone stand upon request). Please be sure to let me know ahead of time so I can have it ready.
Yes, primarily when I perform as a Soloist as this allows me to create a rather nice atmosphere as well as provide a “Full sound” for events with large attendances. All songs I perform have been carefully prepared and arranged to sound professional and entertaining. When performing with some of my other musicians I rarely use any backing tracks.
Yes, besides performing as a Soloist, I often get booked to perform as a Spanish Guitar Duo, Latin Jazz/Variety Trio and even as a 4 or 5 piece band. The musicians who perform with me have been with me between 5-11 years so we are a "well oiled machine".
I have enough material to play for 6 hours without reading any music and without repeating a single song.
As a professional, I am aware my role is to provide Background music so I am always extremely attentive to the volume level of my performance in oder to create the perfect atmosphere so your guests can carry on with their conversations while listening to the music and those who want to listen to it will be able to enjoy every song I perform.
When performing for a corporate event, a birthday party, anniversary, etc., people sometimes ask if I know certain songs. I am always happy to play them if I know them. For wedding ceremonies, my package includes me learning up to two new songs. Additional requests for any event can be learned and arranged. This process is quite time consuming so an arranging fee may apply.
I’ve performed at events and destination weddings in several states and also in other countries. Please reach out so I can give you a custom quote. For local performances, a travel fee will be added for events outside of the San Antonio TX area.
Yes, I have a $1 million liability insurance policy in case of any accident and I can list the venue as the “additional insured”.
In order to finalize our booking, I’ll need a 30% deposit and a signed copy of our contract. The remaining balance will be due either a couple of days before the event date or on the day of the event. Specific details will be provided on the contract.
