Very professional and an amazing singer! From our initial communication and during the event we couldn’t have asked for better entertainment. Loved Riley’s genres of music and guitar playing. We felt like we were at a private concert. Thank you a special night!

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thank you, Kim! I'm delighted everyone enjoyed my performance. Yes, keep me in mind for future events like this one.

Riley is a polished performer, who added so much to our backyard "ranch" party. He is kind, interesting and was willing to "fit" the theme. Everyone raved. He was the highlight, but didn't need to be in the spotlight. Thank you Riley!

He was early, professional, and amazingly talented!

Riley was extremely professional. He was easy to work with from prior to the event to conclusion of event. He is an extremely talented artist/singer. I would recommend him to any and all. Thank you Riley for making our event a huge success.

Thank you Steven! I had a great time playing for your family and friends. I look forward to doing this again in the future. Thanks for finding me here on Gig Salad!

Riley performed at our Fourth of July celebration this year 2021. Riley and his wife showed up on time, was very professional and the music was excellent. Riley kept in touch with me all along the way making scheduling his performance for me easy with no stress. I highly recommend Riley to make your next event even better! Thanks!

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thank you, Kirt! It was great performing for you and your friends. I appreciate your making us feel welcome and feeding us, which you didn't have to do. When you have another event in Haslet, I hope you'll keep me in mind.

Riley Wilson, what an outstanding (and upstanding) act. He showed up on time, was very professional and courteous. All of the equipment was in good working condition. Now his talent: Excellent voice, guitarist, and overall act. He played a little bit of everything (which I requested). Strait, Campbell, Hendrix, Eagles, Beatles just to name a few. His talents are endless. Everyone who attended has called or texted me and told me how much they loved his performance. My husband (the birthday boy, who plays a mean guitar) was very impressed! We will definitely call him again. Loved, loved, loved it. Thank you Riley for making this party a hit!

Thank you very much, Linda! I’m delighted everyone had fun and it was an honor to be a part of Mark’s celebration. I look forward to performing for you all again. I really appreciate this review and thanks for booking me here on Gig Salad!
At the last minute, we were able to obtain Riley. He played fantastic with the perfect music for our event. Everyone loves Riley!

Riley and his wife showed up exactly on time traveling from Frisco to Daingerfield.
And performed for 4 hours and played exactly what we had ask for. Every single person at our ANNIVERSARY Party loved his playing and singing. Can't say enough good about this man. Worth every penny we paid plus more. We had arranged for him to perform 3 hours but ask him to extend for another hour because everyone was enjoying the performance.
You can't go wrong with Riley Wilson, I will recommend him to everyone.
Thank you Riley for making our 50th a smashing success.

Thank you very much, Curtis. It was a fun trip to east Texas and we thoroughly enjoying performing for you all. I'm glad you chose to extend the performance time. I hope we can entertain you folks again!

Riley was fantastic! This was the hardest day my family and I had to endure. My grandmother loved country music and Riley did a great job singing some of her favorite songs. I know she was smiling from heaven! Thanks again Riley for making my family and I feel at ease on one of the hardest day ever!

Thank you George! It was a pleasure meeting you and your wife. I'm glad you invited me to be a part of her celebration. I'm happy I was able to hit all the right notes. I appreciate your booking me here on Gig Salad!

I booked Mr. Wilson for my father's celebration of life service. He played every song I picked, in the order I requested, for the visitation as well as during the service. I requested "blues riffs and soulful playing to honor my father's love of blues and classic rock." What I got was an outstanding performance, tailored to what my father loved, and I know my dad was giving a standing ovation up in Heaven. It could not have been a more perfect way to honor the life of a wonderful man.
Book him. You won't regret it. He is professional and his talent will astound you.

Riley was the PERFECT MATCH for our event! He was early, professional, and amazingly talented!

Our garden center hosted a large event over an entire day with multiple vendor booths and other activities with Riley providing our music. He played for about 3 hours and performed a great selection of classic rock and country music, which was perfect for our audience. Our customers and employees all raved about how much they liked him and asked me to book him again for future events. He brought a state-of-the-art backup system that enhanced his solo guitar and made him sound like a full band with vocal harmonies. He was very professional and punctual, and very easy to work with. He's also very good as a "master of ceremonies" if you need him to make announcements and such. We were all really pleased with his performance!

Everyone enjoyed Riley. He is exceptionally talented and many people asked how I came across him. He was a perfect choice for our event and he has my highest recommendation. He was on time, stayed a little later than we had originally planned and interacted with the guests as little and as much as we wanted. We hired him for a ladies only birthday happy hour/cocktails evening.

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thanks so much, Mindy!

I contracted Riley to perform for my girlfriend's birthday and she loved it! Riley was very professional and on time. He was very accommodating to all my special requests before the show date. Great communication. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Country Singer, One Man Band, Singing Guitarist

We hired Riley for our daughter's engagement party. I was worried about the entertainment "taking over" the emphasis of the party but I was wrong! Riley was absolutely able to correctly read the situation and fit right in. Our guests were surprised and loved his music. He was absolutely fantastic and it took a very nice party and threw it into a different realm. He was so popular with the crowd that we had to add extra time to his performance. I would definitely hire him again!

He played at a corporate event for us. He was very talented and professional and brought a great touch to our event.

One Man Band

Riley's skills as a guitarist are to say the least, excellent. We hired him for our holiday wedding reception in downtown Ft Worth. It was a formal wedding reception with a plated dinner and dancing. He was certainly flexible! Riley played classical (and holiday classics) guitar through dinner and our guests danced the evening away to his classic rock and Texas country songs! We have fantastic memories of our wedding and Riley is certainly one of them!

I requested quotes for a solo guitarist to play acoustic, up-beat holiday music for a two-hour cocktail event at a private residence. Riley was one of the first musicians to respond and we booked him.
Prior to our event, I sent Riley a message detailing the event and reiterating what we were looking for in terms of vibe, dress and music selection.
Pros:
- Riley arrived promptly and was set up and ready to go when guests arrived
- He plays the guitar well
Cons:
- Despite specifically requesting acoustic holiday music, only a handful of holiday songs were played and none of them were acoustic. All music was accompanied with vocals and background tracks. Not at all the vibe we were looking for. When I asked Riley about this, he said he could not do what I was asking for and asked me if I had watched his reel before booking.
- Riley did not mention to me before the event that his wife would be accompanying him. They are nice people, but it was a little awkward that she was sitting next to him the whole time. Our event was fairly small and I had several guests ask me about it. It wasn't really a problem, but a heads up would've been nice.
- Riley set up a Gigsalad 5-star performer sign, as well as business cards and a tip jar without asking if that would be acceptable. Again, this was an event at a private home so it felt out of place.
I'm sure Riley is perfect for many events and parties. He just wasn't what we were looking for.
Guitarist

Riley came to my birthday party as a surprise from my beloved wife. I was the recipient of his talent in my birthday party. I turned 18 with 42 years of experience. Riley made the party. Took me back in time with the tunes he played. Thanks man!

Booked Riley for my husband's country themed 40th birthday party. He was great!

Do not hesitate to hire Riley. He is an extremly skilled musican. Riley performed for a neighborhood party that had guests ranging in age from their mid-30's to their mid-70's. Everyone had a blast. Many times throughout the night the guests said 'Riley' sounds just like Neil Diamond, Johnny Cash, or many others. He will not disappoint!
One Man Band

Riley helped make a surprise birthday party a success. Great selection of tunes, easy to work with and overall excellent musician ...per the musicians in the crowd! Party-goers loved the music and we highly recommend Riley!

We hosted a small back yard wedding reception and Riley Wilson and his keyboard guy Brian were fantastic. They read the multi-generation crowd and played to everyone! Dance, easy listening, country, rock, and they took requests! Great musicians.. they made a great evening even better! JM

Riley performed at our daughter's rehearsal dinner. We had a mixed audience from the wedding party (early 20's) to grandparent's ( on up there! ). Riley provided exactly the right level of energy for this event. He was pleasant, cheerful, entertaining, and his music was excellent.
Everything he played was true to the original and easily recognized by the listeners. He is easy to work with, accommodating and willing to suggest ideas when requested.
Riley did a wonderful job and I would quickly recommend him to anyone planning an event.
One Man Band
Wow, what a great success! Riley was so professional and the crowd loved him. He played songs that appealed to everyone and took requests. He managed to get everyone dancing by the end of the night by the pool! I would definitely recommend Riley Wilson for your upcoming gatherings. Neighbors down the street thought I had a full band playing in the backyard as the sound was beautiful!
One Man Band

I hostessed a "decade party" for my husband's 70th birthday. He loves country western music, country western swing and 50's-60's "oldies". His favorite food is BBQ. So I located an upscale BBQ restaurant and searched online for an appropriate singer. Riley's website information, his audio segments, and the public feedback from his previous events prompted me to call him. After a brief telephone interview, I hired him for my event. I couldn't have been more pleased with my choice! His repetoire was exensive, his personality was engaging, and my guests were very impressed with his one man band! Other restaurant guests wanted to join our party - they kept gravitating towards the live music! I will most definitely hire Riley again and I would encourage anyone looking for a great singer and a great personality to consider meeting Riley.

I play a very wide variety of material, from acoustic New Age (Acoustic Alchemy, Ottmar Liebert), smooth jazz (Larry Carlton, Ronny Jordan and George Benson), pop (Sting, Jack Johnson, John Mayer and James Taylor), rock (Kings Of Leon, Tom Petty, Vertical Horizon and ZZ Top), modern country (Kenny Chesney, Zac Brown Band, Blake Shelton), classic country (George Strait, Garth Brooks, Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson) as well as Texas dirt artists (Pat Green, Stoney Larue and Randy Rogers Band).
Since I am a full time guitar teacher and voice talent, audiences are often stunned to hear my performance sounds "just like the original recording." With my studio and custom backing tracks I record with real guitars, bass, mandolin, pedal steel as well as backing vocals, recorded by me ahead of time, I sound like a full band! Best of all, I can do all this with a performance area as small as 4 'X 6'. As long as I have that and some electricity, I'll do the rest.
In a typical 3-4 hour performance, I will play about one hour and take a break of less than 15 minutes. During the break, I can provide break music at a lower level than my show to help maintain the right atmosphere. I will then perform and break until the performance is completed. I often am asked to play another hour or even longer if the show is well received! I'm happy to do this unless I have another scheduled event back to back.
Audiences are uniformly impressed by my variety and quality of music, musically and vocally. Hire me for yourself and see why!
About
Here is the most awarded guitarist/vocalist/solo entertainer in the United States! A Gig Salad "Top Performer" since 2012, Riley's One Man Band is among the most versatile in the nation, regularly playing classical, jazz, rock, country, pop and blues - often in the same performance!
"I've been performing solo gigs for more than 20 years. As a full time guitar teacher, writer and voice talent, I bring all this experience to my One Man band shows.

Additional Booking Notes
I need an area about 4' x 6' with standard 3 pin grounded 110 volt AC. An elevated stage is nice, but is not necessary. A separate area to change clothes is helpful, since I usually don't dress for the performance until the gear is assembled and ready to play. I don't drink alcohol or smoke, but appreciate water during the show. I enjoy eating on a break if that's not an imposition on the host or client.
