Overview
Hey there!
I play for all types of events - weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, anniversaries, holiday parties... you name it!
I have 15 years of experience as a musician and have done a variety of projects such as playing local solo-acoustic shows, fronting/songwriting for an indie rock band, playing in worship band at church, playing in a party/cover band, and have also written and produced multiple CD's of children's music.
I really enjoy adding that special touch to each event that I'm a part of and would love to work with you!
Let's make it happen!

Sam exceeded expectations from our opening communication to the last song he played. He is just awesome. When everything had to change last minute for our ceremony because of weather, Sam was super chill and helped us hold it all together with his beautiful music. He nailed our special requests. Additionally, he filled time he was not expected to play with beautiful instrumental music that kept a nice atmosphere during some unexpected chaos as a result of weather. His ability read situations and rooms and go with the flow is so good. He was a highlight of our wedding. People have already been raving to us about how awesome Sam is. On top of all of it, Sam is very professional and just a nice guy. Spending money on his service is one of the best purchases I have ever made. HIRE SAM NOW!

Thanks for the kind words, Jay!
We highly recommend Sam to add the entertainment to your next event; whether big or small. We had about 45 people and Sam was very entertaining.
Sam was very communicative as we planned for the party and showed up in plenty of time to set up.
You will not be disappointed to have Sam be the musician at your event!!!

Thanks, Alisa for the review!
Sam was great. He read the room well and played some great music. The YouTube videos do not do his taller justice. Thanks Sam!

Thanks for having me, Robert!
Sam played our wedding, doing both processional and recessional songs and absolutely nailed both of them. I cannot give him enough praise for how professional and accommodating he was with our song requests. Our wedding was amazing due in no small part to Sam and his music. We highly recommend him for any event! Thank you, Sam!

We had to make some last minutes changes of moving the event from outside to inside and Sam was understanding and accommodating.

Thanks Kristina! I had a great time playing for your fun kids party!
I cannot rave about Sam enough! I booked Sam for my 25th birthday party and he was a huge hit! He played songs from all genres and even took requests! Sam made the party truly an over the top amazing event! He got there early to setup, gave shout-outs for my birthday and allowed my friends to give a speech using his equipment! Everyone at the party talked about how great he was and what a good time he was as well! He was super interactive with us which was so much fun! I will definitely be booking him again!

Sam did a wonderful job at our event at Treyburn Country Club. All of the members loved his sound, guitar skills and his voice. He was very professional throughout the entire process and followed through. Sam arrived early, started and ended on time. He engaged with the audience and had a wonderful selection of songs. We look forward to hiring him again for our future events!

What to Expect
Acoustic covers spanning multiple eras and genres, but staying close to home with classic rock and pop hits, with country and folk music mixed in. My focus is to add a lively, yet comfortable atmosphere, adding in a backdrop of acoustic music for people to still socialize, listen, and have fun. I bring all of my own sound equipment, mics, etc., and have a quick set up and tear down for each event. I am also willing to travel, so please don't hesitate to reach out if there is an event in another city or state!
About
I am a husband and father of 2 and have been playing guitar (along with some other instruments) for about 15 years. I am a singer songwriter and guitarist and have been in multiple bands in the Raleigh area. My hope is to one day get a chance to be on the road, sharing my music with the world. As I continue to build a catalog and repertoire as a performer, I'm glad I get the chance to also do acoustic gigs, and play for parties, weddings, etc!
