One Man Band Cover Songs from a variety of eras and diverse styles. Great vocals and rhythm guitar. Focus on 80's and 90's Rock and Pop. Great audience interaction if wanted. Electric, Drum and Bass, and Acoustic options.
The typical show is 3 hours with a setlist of 30-40 songs tailored to your event presented as a combination of full band sound to acoustic only as needed. You're the boss!
Scott was great. Easy coms beforehand, showed up at agreed time, selected best equipment for set up on the spot (brought various options) and played wonderfully for 3 hours straight! He even let one of the guests play a song and was just a very good mix of professional and part of the group. He was also really eager to make sure we were happy with the playlist and the way he would show up. All the guests commented on how nice it was and were asking how we arranged it.
Response from Scott Byers Music:
Thanks so much Sjors! It was a pleasure to perform and you were an excellent host.

Gig Length: 90 - 240 minutes

I present a "one-man band" experience including acoustic solo, electric guitar with drum beats, and pre-created beats and bass lines presented along with a diverse set of vocals and range of songs focused primarily on the 70s through the 90s, with a lot of one-hit wonders. Think U2, The Cure, Bon Jovi, Bob Dylan, Matchbox 20, George Strait, The Eagles, Chris Isaak, Billy Idol, Garth Brooks, Phil Collins, Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, Reo Speedwagon, Journey, Night Ranger, 4 non Blondes, A-ha, The Beatles, John Lennon, 3 Doors Down, and the list goes on. I can play as background music; however, where I really shine is in engaging with the crowd, getting a fill for their musical interests and helping them become a part of the show.
Give it a try, especially if you like those 70-90s rock and pop songs. You and your guests will be singing along in no time!
Retired from a 23 year career after a motorcycle accident almost killed me. I rekindled my love of music and found hidden talents performing locally. Now I have done several gigs around town and love the opportunity to show my appreciation of life and music.
I have my own 12 channel mixer and effects channels, microphones, stands, and instruments. I also use a professional Bose L1 Pro16 system for areas up to 100+ square feet and this give a very nice balanced sound for your guests.
I need a power supply and about a 8 x 8 area or stage to set up. I also provide background music of your choice through the system during the occasional break between sets.
If you wonder whether to get a DJ or Live Music, do both with me. I can play most any song you want during live music breaks all for the same price! :)
