September 20, 2025Luis was prompt, professional, and oh so talented! He fit in perfectly with my family for my dad's 90th surprise party. He learned a few songs for us and even got my dad up dancing. Thank you Luis - we will definitely be calling on you, your beautiful voice and guitar playing, again!

Thank you so much, Robyn! It was an honor to be part of such a special celebration for your dad’s 90th. I loved learning those songs for you and seeing everyone — especially your dad — dancing and singing was unforgettable. I’d be delighted to play for your family again anytime!”

February 17, 2025We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Luis to play at our restaurant for a Valentine's Day Dinner, and were beyond impressed! From the first note, it was clear that he had a true gift on the guitar. The technical skill and emotion he brings to every song is unmatched. It is clear that Luis truly loves what he does, and that passion shines through in every song.
Communication with Luis was 10/10. He was kind and professional from booking to closing. If you're looking for a top-tier guitarist who can deliver an unforgettable experience, look no further! We can't wait to plan another event with a guest appearance from Luis.

I am a musicologist from Venezuela with extensive knowledge of string instruments from all over America. I had the privilege of receiving classical guitar training at the Conservatory of Music "Jose Luis Paz" in Venezuela through the "El Sistema" education program. My passion lies in Hispanic rhythms, such as Bossa from Brazil, Flamenco from Spain, Tango from Argentina, Latin jazz from Venezuela and Cuba, and Folk American Music.
As a teacher, I am inspired by "El Sistema" and dedicated to making a positive impact on children's lives through music education. I teach a variety of instruments including Bajo Sexto, Cuatro, 12-string guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar, Vihuela, Ukulele, Piano, and Afro Percussion instruments.
