I play guitar and sing and can morph a set list to meet your clientele.
I have been playing and performing for 40+ years, have been a busker, played in several bands throughout the years in Pullman, Spokane and Seattle, and have released a couple of LPs to all streaming services with a group of collaborators from the US, Argentina, and the UK.
As mentioned, I play multiple styles from Blues, Old time, Country, Classic Rock, Contemporary Rock, Singer Song Writer stuff...covers and or originals.
Some influences are: The Wood Brothers, Ray LaMontagne, Patty Griffin, Tyler Childress, Alison Krauss, Robert Plant, Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, Elvis and just about every type of music in between.
He is on time and easy to work with.
We were so lucky that Dalton was available for our event. Everyone was blown away by his performance. Amazing musical talent. Top notch! He showed up on time, set up on his own and was zero stress for us. Not only was his performance excellent, but he also has a quick wit and had fun with the crowd.
I had the pleasure of hearing Dalton Rayne play at a neighborhood event in Oldtown, Idaho this past summer.
He kept everyone in the crowd entertained with his humor and his incredible music skills.
He is a gifted guitarist, singer and songwriter and he demonstrated that he is able and willing to play any genre.
Throughout his performance, he played great cover tunes as well as several beautiful, heartfelt songs he has written through the years.
He is a treasure and a rising star!

With a library of both cover and original songs, I can customize my set list to meet your event's needs. From solo acoustic to full blown funk, blues, rock band performances. Let me know what you are looking for, and I can leverage my community of incredible musicians to give you the performance you are looking for. From kids birthday parties, to corporate events, or party entertainment...just let me know.
A PNW native, Dalton Rayne has played in multiple rock, blues, grunge, alternative/indie, old time, bluegrass, funk and soul bands around Washington, Idaho and Oregon since the late 80s and on and off for the past 8 years in Stockholm Sweden. Since March of 2020, Dalton has been out of the live music scene, focusing on multiple global online music collaboration projects including the recent release of the inaugural LP from the Burning Orchids this past June available on all streaming platforms.
As a singer/songwriter, Dalton takes inspiration from legends such as Allison Krauss, Stephen Stills, Patty Griffin, Ray LaMontagne, Zac Brown Band, Robert Plant, The Wood Brothers, Reeltime Travelers just to name a few.
Dalton's original music explores love lost, broken dreams, battles with demons, mindless murder, selfish greed, chilling impacts of war and general intrigue. To quote Dalton: “My audiences tend to leave realizing their lives are actually pretty good.”
For small venues, I have my own equipment that can accommodate solo, duo, or trio performances. If playing larger room, I would either need to leverage the "house" PA system or bring my own. If I bring my own, it will increase the set up and tear down time, as well as performance fee, however I am more than willing to work out a fair and equitable price.

Ideally for larger venues, I would simply leverage their PA system and house sound engineer for the performance. If none exists, I will need to bring my own PA and engineer increasing the cost of the performance.
For small venues, (e.g. 20-50 people) I have enough equipment and can run my own sound.
