January 10, 2026I will be booking Salvatore again in the future. He did a great job of fulfilling my wishlist of songs, was very professional, timely, and all my guests loved him.

March 10, 2020I cannot say enough about Salvatore and the amazing work he did for our wedding.
We were directed to him after our original booking was unable to do our wedding. Salvatore majorly stepped up to the plate and I am SO THANKFUL that he ended up being our wedding musician.
Salvatore went above and beyond - learning a specific song for our father/daughter dance, working with me on timing and last minute changes. We had to communicate remotely as we are from out of town, and he was so gracious through the entire process.
Salvatore has a deep love and passion for music and you can really feel it. He did such a beautiful job during our ceremony and at our reception. Thank you for making our "best day ever" even better!

April 15, 2019Oh my word... Salvatore Delivered! Our event was made exponentially better with his musical expertise. When the vibe was low-key at the beginning, he played soft and instrumental tunes. As things heated up, he included vocals and was Always playing to the crowd in the room in terms of volume and intensity. We will Definitely book Salvatore again - he rocks!!!

Professionalism and great music! I believe in providing music that's not only pleasing to listen to but entertaining as well. I vary my sets to have something for everyone. I communicate well and I am flexible.
After releasing his debut EP—full of soulful R&B, smooth songwriting and pop hooks—earlier this year and wrapping up a spring tour, Salvatore Manalo is focused on consistently creating new music. His upcoming single “She” will be the first of many that are performed, produced and recorded entirely by Salvatore. This is just the beginning of a path of uninhibited creativity. You can find Salvatore teaching music, producing, and playing venues all around the PNW area.
Power supply will usually suffice.
