Thank you, Michael! I really enjoyed creating the 3-song parody medley (a first ;-) for your son and daughter-in-law, and what an exciting celebration, with accordion for the traditional family members and a belly dancer for fun! Congratulations to your whole family!

We love Glen Roethel!

I have booked Glen Roethel many times and am always impressed with his level of musicianship and professionalism. Glen is a frequent artist on the PosiPalooza concert tours we produce around the country, wowing audiences with his charm and amazing original songs. In addition, I have booked him for the house bands at the Unity Worldwide Ministries conference, Sound Connections Music Directors conferences, and Glen has been in the house band for the Posi Festival for the last 10 years. This year, Glen will be the band leader for the Posi Fest. In addition to his own great songs, Glen knows tons of cover songs! Glen has led the after party at the Posi Fest for the last 10 years. Glen is fun, talented, professional, easy to work with, organized, plays great guitar, and has a great voice. You will be thrilled with Glen Roethel!

Hired as: 1960s Era Entertainment, 1970s Era Entertainment, Beatles Tribute Band, Folk Singer, Guitarist, Singer/Songwriter

Fantastic musician! Recommended!

Glen played guitar and sang at my mother’s 90th birthday. He has a huge list of 1300+ songs to choose from. We selected 60 songs in advance that we thought would be appropriate for the party. He is a talented guitarist with a nice voice, which made the songs very enjoyable. I would hire him again.

What to expect

Expect to be entertained, dazzled, and pampered by this energetic and skillful artist. Neat presentation, timely arrival and setup, exceptional sounding compact PA system, professional musical instruments, constant attention to your needs, and flexibility to make adjustments when needed.

The following are genuine testimonials:

**** "A great voice!" ~ John Platt, WFUV-NY

**** "Glen has that gift which brings out a spark in people." ~ Amy Tuttle, Long Island Music Hall of Fame

**** "Monster musician!" ~ Kenny Edwards (Stone Poneys, Linda Ronstadt)

**** "Sounds great!" ~ Billy Joel (Billy crashed Glen's solo performance once and sang with him for 40 minutes)

**** "Glen's music put me in the mood..in a space...before he even started singing." ~ Jeffrey Gaines

**** "I LOVE his voice!" ~ Penny Nichols (Original Jimmy Buffet 'Coral Reeferette')

**** "Just GREAT. Performances straight from the heart!" ~ Jean Alain Roussel (Cat Stevens, Celine Dion, Bob Marley & The Wailers, Thin Lizzy, 10cc, The Police)

**** "Myrna & I are award winning writers, but words can't express how delighted we are with Glen's participation at our daughter's 50th birthday party. His exceptional talent is matched by his niceness and every one attending the event told us..."Wow, where did you find that fabulous performer?" Glen also accompanied performances by our granddaughter and Lou and as the evening closed, Glen sent everyone out on a high with a fabulous sing-along! We've worked with the biggest names in show business and Glen's performance is up there with the best." ~ Myrna & Lou Binder

About

GLEN ROETHEL

Generally speaking...

Somewhere between Folk and Rock, classic and modern, original and pop there walks a very fine award-winning singer-songwriter named Glen Roethel. He is a powerful vocalist and skillful guitarist who will impress any crowd but *always* stays mindful of why you *really* are there listening – in your earbuds, at the concert, or at the event – to have a great time.

About that...

"Glen has that gift which brings out a spark in people." - Amy Tuttle, Long Island Music Hall of Fame

Glen tours singing his own songs with guitar and ukulele – often improvising new songs on-the-fly – and even providing custom songwriting for special events.

Born in San Diego, Glen grew up in New York, developing his easy rapport with audiences in and around the Big Apple. He’s a real crowd-pleaser and having learned from the best music of our era he’s attracting fans of artists as diverse as the Righteous Brothers and Joni Mitchell, Jason Mraz and John Denver, the Black Eyed Peas and the Beatles. Applying these skills as a corporate and private entertainer, he gives performances which earn him 5-star reviews and “Best of" awards year after year. Glen has performed at literally thousands of events and parlays that experience into a great time for every audience member at every show. Every performance and song list​ is customised to the event, so no two shows are alike!

As an artist...

"A great voice!" - John Platt, WFUV-NY

He’s a beloved national Posi (Positive Music) artist. His songs and music have been heard on nationally syndicated commercial radio, college and international radio, as well as on TV. His voice, music and performances inspire praise from celebrities like Billy Joel, Jeffrey Gaines, Kenny Edwards (Stone Poneys, Linda Ronstadt), Jean Alain Roussel (Cat Stevens, Celine Dion, Bob Marley & The Wailers, Thin Lizzy, 10cc, The Police), Penny Nichols (original Jimmy Buffet Band 'Coral Reeferette'), John Redgate (Paul McCartney in Beatlemania, on Broadway and in Japan) and others. To his credit are several self-produced CDs (From Beginning to End, Smaller Things, Unfolding [solos, Inspireline Records]; Red Apples And Gold, Songs of Hope and Freedom [Gathering Time, Inspireline Records], ambition [gush, Indigo Records]), new compilations by emPower Music & Arts (More Than A Season, Infinite Surface Of The Heart, Go Out and Shine!), as well as performances, cowrites, and production credits on gorgeous and award-winning recordings by Penny Nichols, Sue Riley, Joe Iadanza, Paul Helou, Mara Levine, Josh Joffen, Kayli Joseph, Phil Teumim, Mitch Katz, Amy Soucy & Sharon Goldman, Michael Carr, DejaVoodoo, Grimm Jack, Pat Nichols Band and more.

More tidbits…

Glen is the founder of the recently popular (now reformed) folk-rock harmony trio Gathering Time, co-creator of AcousticMusicScene, and sole proprietor of his indy label, Inspireline, and music publishing company, Laughing Buddha Music/BMI. He teaches guitar, songwriting, and performance at Summersongs in New York (Summersongs – a not-for-profit organization for which he now serves on the Board of Directors), at the Posi Music Festival in Tampa, FL. He was a songwriter contest finalist for the Susquehanna Music & Arts Festival and a jury-selected performer at the 5th Annual Singer-Songwriter Cape May festival and at the Northeast Regional Folk Alliance conference (NERFA) in Tricentric, Quadcentric, and Main-stage showcases. In 2014, Glen received honors from the Mid-Atlantic Song Contest (MASC), Songwriters’ Association of Washington, DC for four songs (“Too Much Crying” [God prize in the General category], “Sweet Cider” [Honorable Mention in the Country / Bluegrass category], “The Family Tree” [Honorable Mention in the Acoustic / Folk category] and “Dandelion Dreams” [Honorable Mention in the Open category], a cowrite with Sue Riley), as well as three Posi Award nominations for his songs “Beautiful Now,” “Family” and "Together" (all from his 2013 CD, Unfolding, on Inspireline).

His song “Namaste” was featured in a multi-media exhibit at the Presidential Museum in Texas for three months; his songs “People of the Earth” and “Morning Prayer” are published in New Thought songbooks for Unity Worldwide Ministries (“People of the Earth” was also included in the Hal Leonard Corp songbook, 101 Inspiring Songs: The Ultimate New Thought Fakebook in 2013). Glen enjoys making a habit of encouraging songwriters and other artists, both young and old; he gives guitar lessons to select students (at all levels of ability); and is a frequent record production consultant, vocal arranger, studio guitarist/vocalist, recording engineer, and graphic/web designer.
