Perfect addition to the party

Jeff did a wonderful job! He is so polite and professional. We held an engagement party for my son with friends and family from 21 to 82. Everyone enjoyed his music. It was subtle and sophisticated. Just what we needed for a cocktail party of over 100 guests.

Skillful guitarist, nice person

We liked Jeff Taylor’s music so much last year, we booked him again this year for our annual fundraising event in Niceville, FL for 150 people. It was held in a lovely outdoor courtyard, a perfect setting for his Classical/romantic Spanish guitar music. Jeff arrived early and performed beautifully. He was flexible during the event, pausing when our emcee spoke, and seamlessly continuing after. Jeff is one of the nicest, easygoing people you’ll ever meet and a well-organized, skillful musician. If you’re looking for a guitarist to enhance and elevate your special event, I strongly recommend you choose Jeff.

Thank you so much for having me Sonia! I had a blast playing for you all and that Paella dinner was incredible! I felt like we were in Valencia, Spain!

You were so kind and generous to make me a plate of food to take home with me and I have to admit that I didn’t even wait until I got home to eat some! I would love to come play for you all again so count me in!

Thank you for the kind words Judith!
It was lovely to meet you and Paco and we were so grateful to get to play for your special day! A highlight for me was during the ceremony there was a light breeze that gently blew the white flower pedals off the trees surrounding the area. It looked like it was snowing ! It was magical!!

I wish you and Paco the best!!

Cheers!

What to expect

My goal is and always will be to make sure I'm providing value to the people I work with and try to offer an individualized service that you can't get anywhere else.
What sets me apart from the rest is that I want to set your event apart from the rest when it comes to music selection.
Ideally, each booking would include some or all music composed especially for your occasion. A custom soundtrack to your party. I would prepare this music using your musical taste and some examples of music you love as a guide. For example, if you love Bossa Nova and The Girl From Ipanema is one of your favorites then I would take this into account when making your personal piece(s) of music.

If you want to see an example of this in action, have a look at my first video called "Latin Guitar Improvisation." This was created on the spot when someone requested something "Latin/Spanish."

Of course, If you love The Girl From Ipanema and want The Girl From Ipanema played or any other classic/traditional music, I can play that for you too.

I am thankful for your time and hope to have the opportunity to earn your business.
