Hi and thanks for checking me out!
If you're a Baby Boomer like me or if you just love the music from the 60's and 70's, and some current tunes, the great songs from Stones, Beatles, Springsteen, Tom Petty, Neil Diamond, Eagles, Neil Young, Crosby Stills and Nash, Jackson Browne, Cat Stevens and Bob Dylan then I am the performer you are looking for!
You need a 5-star performer with experience (35 years) and references (check client comments from past performances on Gigmasters) I am your best choice. You and your guests will receive the best quality professional performance and attitude, as I over deliver every time. My performance is a unique blend and variety of classic 60's 70's to 90's with some new and original material woven in. Performing with original early 1960's Gibson 12 string and mid 70's Martin D35 acoustic 6 string guitars I cover all the bases of the period. I have a soulful professionally well-trained voice for an intimate and personal experience that at times will make you feel like your listening to the original artist. I always enhance and elevate your special event with friends, loved ones, relatives or business associates.
I have the unique ability to "read the crowd" from decades of experience I follow the mood and feeling of the party or event as it ebbs and flows never interfering with the atmosphere or conversation with the sound level that is perfect for conversation and relationship building. I bring to the party or event a lifetime of experience being conscious of the importance of the right songs for socializing, taking vows or just getting loose for fun and rocking out. My performance provides an artistic, inspirational and pleasing backdrop for private, public special events. Only experience and talent can produce the perfect musical results for your party. I deliver that experience and skill every time because I always give 100 %!
My performance is customized to meet your needs. Whether you want solo acoustic balladeer on the beach, on a rock in the desert, on a stage at your convention or at home in your living room or a backyard Bar B Q, I exceed expectations every time. I use the best Bose L1 model 2 sound system, the best instruments, 1965 Gibson 12 string and 1976 Martin D35 and the best microphone, Neumann 105 for a perfect studio quality sound live performance. The live studio quality will amaze you and your guests.
I know I am never the "low bid" for folks with a tight or low budget but quality counts, and high quailty is never at the bottom of the price scale. You have one chance to get it right, to show your friends, family and business associates you really care about what they think. Make the perfect choice and book me today. Don't take a chance on low end sound, insterments and performance. When you want authentic quality and class, book me today.
Let me know if you have any special requests usually I can accommodate but if it involves a lot of time to learn, I will have to charge acordingly and yes I will travel anywhere for the right gig.
Hire me for your next event, like so many others, You'll be glad you did!
Peace & Love
Don Clark
