Overview
Hello-I'm Riley Wilson and you're looking for professional entertainment without spending a fortune. I can help you out!
I'm one of the most awarded One Man band acts on Gig Salad since 2012. I'm a full time guitar teacher, performer and voice talent and specialize in great entertainment, regardless of the event type. No matter what type of event you need live music, I do it all. From blues to classical guitar to country, jazz, pop, rock and standards, I can perform it. I play guitar and sing live along with custom tracks I record in my studio to sound better than a live band and many times just like the record. Watch my videos, read the reviews and see for yourself!

We had a great experience with Riley. He gave us time leading up to the event as we worked out all the details, he came by the venue the day before the performance to confirm the location and logistics, he arrived early and was set up with plenty of time, and he even played extra time for a nominal fee. The group loved him! Great vocals, song list and he even dressed the part for our theme. Thanks Riley, we will use you again next time we are in Dallas.
Country Singer
Response from Riley Wilson:
Thank you, Barry! I enjoyed performing for the group and hope we can do this again soon.
I found Riley on gigsalad and hired him for my wedding reception. We were looking for a more low key country feel than a DJ would provide. I am SO thankful I came upon his page here. He surpassed all of my expectations and made our reception absolutely perfect. He engaged with the crowd and walked around while rocking out on the guitar. He also knew exactly what to do with little instruction. He settled the guests down when needed and then raised the energy seamlessly. He is professional and even learned a new song for our first dance. He dressed the part and fit right in. We are so thankful we found him and I will recommend him to anyone!!

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thank you, Natalie! It was a pleasure being part of your special day.
Riley was the PERFECT MATCH for our event! He was early, professional, and amazingly talented! Someone who hadn't seen him yet asked what station we had the music coming from; when I told her it was a live performance, she ran in to see him! She was impressed and asked for his contact information for future events she works on for her company. Thank you, Riley!!

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thanks Rhonda! I really enjoyed performing for you all. I recorded the show and since the room was treated for sound absorption, the recording turned out great as well! Let's do this again soon and thanks for booking me on Gig Salad.
Riley played our 40 attendee pool party to rave reviews from out attendees. We asked him to do the first set all country (in country attire) and do a second set with his rock favorites. People loved the first set and were blown away by the second. He told stories about some of the songs - we enjoyed that.
We have a live party every year, and Riley is one of the most professional musicians we have worked with. He was easy to book and flexible on how we wanted the show to play out. He arrived early, set up quickly, and got right to it. Stage presence was excellent. Volume was perfect for the setting.
We knew from his videos that he was a very accomplished guitar player. We didn't realize from the videos what a good voice he had. He has a lot of character in his voice.
We will hire him again.
The party was so much fun!! Riley made the party a party!! Thank you so much!!

I booked Riley for a 20-person backyard party based purely on his Gig Salad reviews, and he was a huge hit! Everyone thought he sounded incredible, and he was such a breeze to work with! Extremely professional and brought everything he needed. The guest of honor had some favorite songs on Riley’s list, and Riley adapted his set list to play those songs. He seems like he can scale and adapt easily to any size/type of event. I will 100% be calling him for my next event, and I recommend you do too!.

Afte the death of my mother a stage 4 cancer victim, I wanted to have a service that celebrated the woman I knew as Mom. I visited a few sites on Gig Salad, looking for a musician to match the feel of the service I wanted. Mr. Wilson was one of the first that reached out to me, and after listening to his tracks I knew I had found the man to help me with her service. We discussed the details of the service, the songs that were to be played and his performance was flawless. Thank you, Mr. Wilson, not just for your services but your caring demeanor and attention to detail, I know Mom was pleased as she looked down upon her ceremony.

Came last minute at a long distance gig and killed it. Everybody loved him and it made the party. People even broke out in dancing spontaneously throughout. Very fair on the price, even when we asked him to stay longer than planned. Our friend has him come to her party a month later.

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!

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.

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.

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!

Thank you Cheryl! I appreciate the 5 star review very much. It was a pleasure playing for you and Janet.
Wow, I was amazed how how easy it was to arrange a true surprise for my wife at her office. Riley is a great artist. If you want to do a true Texas event, hire this guy.

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thanks, Paul! It was wonderful being able to surprise your wife and co workers. Let me know if I can be of service in the future and thanks for finding me on Gig Salad.
My experience with Riley was perfect from start to finish. His one man guitar/country singing performance was perfect for our 700+ attendee reception and all loved him. He made the event a success!
I would hire him again in a second.
Great job Riley. Keep rocking!

Our Guests's comments are: delightful party, beautiful and nice party..... with Riley.

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

Response from Riley Wilson:
Thanks, Emily!
Riley played a corporate event for us and he's very talented, prompt, reliable and set a great tone for our event.
Country Singer
Riley did a wonderful job performing for our corporate customer appreciation event! I would recommend him to anyone for any kind of event. He plays a wide variety of music and does it very well.
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.

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!
One Man Band, Guitarist
Booked Riley for my husband's country themed 40th birthday party. He was great! Strong pre-show communication and was great about customizing the set list for our party - he even added a new song just for us! He has a great voice and guitar skills - so glad I booked him - he added a special touch to our party for sure. Thank you, Riley!
Country Singer
Riley did a great job entertaining at our party. Everyone was very impressed by his talent and wanted to know where we found him. We would not hesitate a minute about hiring him to play at any event! Definitely a five -star plus guy!

Riley Wilson recently performed at our client appreciation dinner. His musical talents are exceptional. There were many compliments on his performance and he fit our venue perfectly. Riley is upbeat and entertaining, with amazing varied musical talents to fit a diverse crowd. We could not have been more pleased with his service and look forward to working with him in the future.
Singing Guitarist, Variety Entertainer, One Man Band
Riley was very professional to work with. He was timely in his booking the gig, and prompt on the day of the event. He was very easy to listen to and played virtually non-stop.
One Man Band
What an engaging performer! Riley Wilson has the widest range of music I've seen and absolutely kept the crowd thoroughly entertained ! We will have him back again and again!!!!
Singing Guitarist
We could not have chosen anyone better! Riley is a fantastic musician.
Riley made my daughter and I feel like we were the most important people in the world on her wedding day.
He was wonderful to work with and made our wedding reception so much fun! We had multiple compliments from our guests on how great he sounded. We had an awesome experience and would not hesitate to highly recommend him or hire him again.

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!
One Man Band
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.

Riley is a very talented artist with a great personality. His performance was perfect for the party in our home. I am very glad he was here to help make my 50th an enjoyable and memorable event!

Booking Info
Price Range: $300-3000
Gig Length: 60 - 480 minutes
Languages: English
What to Expect
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
I''m Riley Wilson and if you're looking for professional entertainment without spending a fortune, look no further! I'm a full time guitar teacher, voice talent and live performer dedicated to giving 110% on every live show. A graduate of UNC Chapel Hill as well as Hollywood's prestigious Guitar Institute of Technology, I am one of a handful of students who actually lectured at GIT while still enrolled as a student!
WHY HIRE ME?
AWARDS- "Top Performer, 5 Star Talent, Best of Gig Salad, 110+ Reviews, 145+ Bookings and Virtual Performer"
EXPERIENCE- I've been a solo performer more than 20 years, after working across the nation in bands before that. I bring all this professionalism to my solo shows. This includes wedding proposals, ceremonies and receptions, funerals, corporate, private and public shows, cruises and more! I am honored and pleased by the awards from GIg Salad and thankful to every client that hires me for their special event."
APPROACH- I have three different variations on my award winning show. First is simply acoustic guitar, nylon or steel string. This is terrific for weddings, funerals, etc where a client only needs soft background music or a significant song to be performed at just the right time. Second is the acoustic guitar and vocals, with or without backing tracks. Many clients like this approach and gives me the chance to sing as well as play guitar without being obtrusive. The third approach is with my electric guitar and custom tracks I create at my professional studio. I even do my own background vocals, just like recording artists making a record. Live, I perform the lead guitar and vocal with these custom tracks to sound better than a live band and many times just like the record. Watch the videos and see for yourself!
SPACE- While I can sound like an entire band, I only need an area of 4' X 6' with AC power nearby. I bring appropriately sized amplification and professional gear for audiences from 2 to 400. This means you can enjoy top flight live entertainment and still visit with clients, family and friends without shouting.
VARIETY- "I have one of the most varied playlists of any solo performer or group. From blues to classical guitar to country, jazz, pop, rock and standards, I perform it. For anything not on this playlist of 200+ songs, I am happy to add your favorites to a break playlist. Whatever you're looking for, get in touch with me today. Together, we'll make your event unforgettable!"
Corporate- Alcatel, Alcon Global, Allegiance Capital, Boot Barn, Carter Financial, Chase, Dallas Bar Association, Del Webb, EDS, GMC, GTE, H-P, JCPenney, KPMG, Kraft, Lennox, Manheim Auto, Mary Kay, McKinney Nissan, Medical City Dallas, Nortel, Orvis, ParkHill, Pulte, Readers Digest, ReMax, Southfork Ranch, Toyota, Tractor Supply, Ulta, University of Oklahoma, Whole Foods, etc.
Country Clubs- Canyon Creek, Dallas, Hackberry Creek, Oakmont, Oakwood, Prestonwood, Petroleum Club,, Timarron, Willow Bend
Restaurants/Wineries- Brennan Vineyards, Cross Timbers Wineries, Halo Pizzeria, Hoffbrau Steakhouse, Landon Winery, Main St Bistro, Oasis Restaurant, Pappas Bar B Que, Randy’s Steakhouse, Rotollo's Craft & Crust, Shuck Me Seafood, Soprano’s Ristorante, etc.

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.

Testimonials
"Riley went above and beyond to ensure he was prepared for our event. He visited the venue to avoid surprises; he clarified the styles of music we requested; he confirmed that the attire he had mind for the evening was appropriate. The video he has posted on the internet gives you an idea as to the quality of his sound, but it does not do justice to his presence "in person". His voice is smooth and as flawless as his guitar playing. Many of the guests went out of their way to comment to me how impressed they were with talent. We will, with no doubt, call Riley for any future entertainment needs or if one of our sons should choose to take guitar lessons!"
– Christy L- Frisco, TX
Many of my years have been spent being around various musicians (both big names and no names). Little did I know that when I found your website how wonderful you would be. Not only did you delight, but blew way past my expectations. You are so very talented and play such a wide spectrum of music which truly makes your appeal power very broad to many. I look forward to the next time that I plan a party. A party is not a party
without you, Riley. Thanks so much for rockin' our socks off!

Riley came to Texas Instruments to play for a retirement party. Much to everyone's surprise, Riley was a big hit and everyone has been asking for his contact information. Not only is he a great singer with a great voice, he has a great sense of humor to go along with it. I recommend Riley for any party or gig you may have.
