Bo showed up early, was very professional, and very entertaining. His guitar playing is excellent and his personality was perfect for our party. I highly recommend him to anyone who’s considering using Bo.

Response from Acoustic Instrumental Fingerstyle Guitar:
Thank you Eric for the kind words and generous hospitality! You and Randy were the perfect hosts and it was an absolute pleasure to be a part of your special evening! Many thanks!
The evening before our Son's wedding, we held a welcome party for all the people who flew in for the wedding. It was an outside event with about 80 people. We wanted someone to play background music while the event was going on and when we listened to Bo's guitar playing we knew he was exactly what we wanted. Beyond his amazing musical talent, Bo arrived at least 45 minutes before the event went on and immediately started playing for early arrivals. Bo stayed playing well beyond the event's ending, because people didn't want to leave. His sound system was perfect, and he had a mic that allowed us to make a few speeches. His professionalism is top-self! I highly recommend Bo, and will certainly seek him out for our next celebration!!

Bo is a great guitarist and provided the perfect soundtrack to our party. He has a huge library of songs and was very accommodating to our guests. We feel very fortunate to have had him play at our event and we recommend him very night. Hire Bo with complete confidence.
Thank you Bo for adding such a beautiful touch to our reception this week. The sweltering heat and humidity were far from our guests' thoughts as they enjoyed networking, cool drinks, and the calming beautiful music you provided. Thanks so much.

My husband and I could not have been more pleased to have our gifted guitarist, Bo Lankenau, play for our wedding in early June 2023. He is gracious, humble and so highly skilled. In fact, our wedding guests continue to remark about how much they enjoyed his repertoire, so we were very happy to hear this.
Bo created an idyllic ambiance for our nature park wedding during the hour before the ceremony, and he played many tunes that would be familiar to our guests. Moreover, his rendition and choice of “What a Wonderful World” for our ceremony’s recessional could not have been more perfect. Bo’s goal was to help make our special day even more special - and he succeeded!!! 😊
We booked Bo for my husbands surprise birthday party and he was WONDERFUL! Amazing music & a great atmosphere for our event. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a guitarist.

We were so glad to have found Bo for our wedding. He was the consummate pro- responding to our emails and texts even while on vacation! He arrived early, set up and was ready to go.

About
Born and raised in Chappaqua, NY, Bo has been playing guitar for over 40 years and is still playing with the same passion and fire that he had when he learned his first Beatles song. Influenced by all the great band of the 60’s and 70’s, let Bo take you on a trip down memory lane playing all of your favorite hits like Hotel California, Stairway to Heaven, Hey Jude etc…. in a unique instrumental way that you have never heard before.
Additional Booking Notes
I play through a Bose system that is considered one of the best in the business and it can accommodate small intimate parties or a 250 person wedding but still leaves a very small footprint. Never too loud but loud enough that you can hear every note. All I need is a power source.
