My band, Mountain Vibes

Overview

I'm a multi-instrumentalist with an acoustic singer-songwriter front. My favorite genres are Alternative Rock, Acoustic Rock, Pop, Folk, Blues, Gospel, Jazz, & a little Country.

For smaller audiences or occasions that requires a softer touch (weddings, proposals, dinners, birthday parties, etc.), I usually offer my Solo Acoustic services.
However, I’ve also had great results bringing in my electric lead-guitarist for a solid duo performance, which works really well for larger audiences, so if you’re budget allows for it, I’d recommend the duo or even our full band.

I’m also available as a stand-in musician for: Vocals, Acoustic, Bass, Piano, & Drums.

Let’s make memories :)

Amazing Musicians

Scuba Steve did a fantastic job at our wedding party! He played and sang music that was not only beautiful, but fit perfectly with our vibe. So many of our guests complimented the band and thought they were great. Much love for these musicians. Would definitely book them again!

Nice kid, good guitarist.

Stephen did a great job playing and singing some laid back vibe music for our neighborhood cocktail happy hour party. I would definitely recommend him to my friends.

Great job!

They provided great music that blended in, rather than overwhelmed the party. People could comfortably converse and still enjoy the group. It was perfect for our type of party.

Great job!

Stephen did a great job for our backyard BBQ. He was on time with his equipment and sang some great songs along with some I personally requested. Would definitely consider hiring him for another event. Thanks again!

A Total Professional

I inquired the services of this up-and-coming musician for a wedding proposal. He was a total professional and even learned some songs in both English and Spanish with only a few days notice for the event.

He even came prepared with extra equipment in the event the weather warranted it, and was openly flexible to our schedule and any changes therein.

This guy is the real deal. Don't hesitate in booking him!

What to expect

Anywhere from 1 to 5 hours of acoustic covers, instrumental jams, and originals.
My voice is fairly soft and soothing, bringing a more relaxed atmosphere.
If possible, maybe a little table with CD's I can sell.
Hand me a list of covers and I'll have them ready by the end of the day!

About

From El Paso, Tx, I've been writing songs for almost 13 years now. Mostly self-taught, I started out playing bass in a local Praise & Worship band and slowly picked up new instruments along the way, growing to appreciate each one's worth until one day I found my voice in it all and began writing my first solo album, "The Girl, the World, & the Struggle," a story of love, loss, and reflection. I also formed an acoustic rock band named Mountain Vibes, releasing our debut EP in 2018. Feel free to find them on iTunes & Spotify! Thanks for listening :)

Any house PA will do, preferably with a monitor!
15 min set up
5 min sound check.
