There's a moment at almost every event; someone hears a song
they recognize, arranged in a way they've never heard. When the "aha" moment hits them, and they revel in their excitement, I'm reminded why I do this
I'm Lenny, A Vancouver fingerstyle guitarist, 10 years performing
at corporate events, luxury weddings, and private celebrations.
I rearrange pop, R&B, jazz, and film scores for solo acoustic
guitar, then move through your event wirelessly, playing directly
at tables. Guests always say they thought it was recorded music.
Until I walk up to them.
Every set list is custom. I arrive early, set up without a fuss,
and give your guests a moment they'll actually remember.

October 20, 2025I'm so thankful I found Lenny - he was amazing at my Mom's 75th Birthday Party! He played everything from The Eagles to Britney Spears, TLC to Queen and everyone was there for it! I might just have to plan another party just to hire Lenny again!

May 8, 2023I have had the pleasure of working with Lenny Pallerstein on numerous occasions, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most talented guitar players I have ever come across. As a wedding planner, I am always looking for vendors who are professional, reliable, and able to deliver exceptional performances. Lenny checks all of those boxes and more.
From the moment he starts, Lenny's energy and passion for music are palpable. He has an incredible ability to read a crowd and adjust his setlist accordingly, ensuring that everyone is having a great time. Whether he's playing classic rock hits or contemporary pop songs, Lenny's guitar skills are simply unmatched. His solos are breathtaking, and his ability to seamlessly transition between songs is truly impressive.
Aside from his musical talents, Lenny is also an absolute pleasure to work with. He is always punctual, courteous, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure that everything runs smoothly. I have worked with him on events of all sizes, and he always brings the same level of enthusiasm and professionalism to each one.
Overall, I cannot recommend Lenny Pallerstein highly enough. If you're looking for a talented and reliable guitar player for your event, look no further. Lenny is the best in the business, and I feel lucky to have had the opportunity to work with him so many times. 5 stars all around!

January 16, 2023Lenny was perfect. He was a sweetheart to work with, and a total breeze to organize. He brought everything he needed for himself (speaker, chair, power, etc.) and then offered extra microphones on top of that! Besides that, his finger-picking guitar style is exactly what we wanted to create a beautiful ambience on our wedding day. Highly recommend!

January 16, 2023Lenny is the best! He stuck with us through all the ups and downs of planning of first, COVID-delayed wedding, through our final reception 2 years later. He has a deep music library and is also open to learning new songs upon request. He is really personable but professional on your big day. And such a trooper! He played outside during this heat dome (we found him what shade there was, don't worry), and his energy never flagged. If you're looking for live guitar for a ceremony or reception (or cocktail hour like us), Lenny would be a great addition to your big day.

January 12, 2023Before our big day, he generously sent over "snippets" of specific songs we wanted played at our wedding, and it was such a great sneak peek to the amazing playing we heard the day of. He was also so kind to learn a new song we wanted for our processional. We had 110% confidence in his musical abilities, professionalism (including the suit he wore) and his setup. Receiving so many compliments about his playing from family and friends, we would recommend him to any wedding or corporate event!

For your wedding; Lenny will set the mood for your ceremony with some beautiful, recognizable guitar arrangements. As guests arrive this creates a talking piece and will entertain your guests as they await the bride & groom. The music will continue for the ceremony, saving the livelier tunes for the cocktail hour depending on your needs!
For your corporate event; Lenny will be set up early and ready to play and entertain your guests as they try to guess and sing along with instrumental versions of their favourite songs. With thousands of hours of practice under his belt Lenny can confidently interact with the crowd while continuing to play flawlessly.
Hi, I’m Lenny…
I’m a Vancouver-based fingerstyle guitarist. You can find me playing around the lower mainland at corporate events and weddings
I pride myself on delivering a great atmosphere through instrumental renditions of your favourite pop, R&B, and jazz tunes on the guitar. Creating a full and unique sound, I offer a professional experience with a personal touch.
Though 90% of my waking hours consist of playing music, the other 10% are typically spent hitting a new PR at the gym, collecting an obscene amount of hot sauces, cooking, or exploring the city.
I am fully self sufficient in terms of technical needs, from outdoor power to sound I'm fully prepared and also can throw in a microphone for your officiant for an extra fee
