July 30, 2015Incredibly Talented & Fit Our Venue Perfectly
We hired Sam Hawkins to play for our Craft Beer Dinner at The Thoroughbred Club of America in Lexington, KY. Sam was a perfect fit for our venue. We booked him on very short notice, and he still showed up early to check all of his sound levels and review with me the music that he would be playing for us. His setlist was perfect, he played acoustic covers of many recognizable songs and played for almost all of the three hours that we hired him. I definitely recommend him, and look forward to hiring him for future events.

Thank you Will for your kind words. The Thoroughbred Club staff was welcoming and kindly offered refreshments. Your staff and the club exude class. Please let me know when I can be of service.

February 3, 2015Lovely classical guitarist
I heard Sam at an art gallery opening and recently a wedding reception. He plays a lovely classical guitar with music ranging from the Beatles, Wave, James Taylor, etc. If you want music for an event that you can still have conversation with great ambiance with a very talented musician, then I would highly recommend Sam.

Gig length: 60 - 180 minutes
What to expect
Expect me to show up early. I utilize a small p.a. System with a microphone and stand. I will be dressed accordingly and I will conduct a few sound tests prior to start time. Expect unimposing yet familiar music.
About
I started learning guitar at age seven and have played professionally most of my life. I play a handmade classical guitar that offers a mellow harp like sound. The style I developed incorporates the bass line, melody, and accompaniment similar to a pianist sitting down and playing a song without vocals.
Additional booking notes
Since my guitar is a hand made one of a kind I will not perform in unprotected or uncovered outdoor venues. Extreme heat and humidity are additional concerns.
