Thank you for checking out my music! I’m an independent singer/guitarist with a catalog of 500+ cover and original songs spanning Top 40, A/C, rock, country, and R&B from the ’60s to today. I perform simple arrangements of classics or build creative renditions with live looping.
After 10+ years performing across SoCal at private parties, corporate events, weddings, and wineries for clients like Kaiser Permanente, Sprouts Farmers Market, DINE Brands, HD Buttercup, and The Griffin Club LA, I am now based in the Bay Area. I've recently played for Rivian, Atria, Diablo Country Club, Drew Bean Farms, farmers’ markets, and personal events — and I’m always looking to connect with new clients!

Thank you, Michael! I had an amazing time playing at Barebottle's new taproom, and love the new space - looking forward to the warm months ahead, and hopefully returning for a beer whenever I'm in town!

May 7, 2024I loved working with Shivan; he was ready to go early and self-sufficient in what equipment he needed. Very easygoing and lovely to work with, definitely will be a return client!
I appreciated that I just needed to give him a lay of the land and a vibe we were going for, and he got the rest; as our team was busy running around the event, we felt assured he was creating an enjoyable atmosphere for our guests. And he did! I overheard multiple people complimenting his skills. 10/10!

With over a decade of professional experience as a singer, guitarist, and performer, I’ve played shows across many settings - including private parties, weddings, and corporate events - for clients such as Sprouts, DINE Brands, HD Buttercup, Kaiser Permanente, The City of Pasedena, country clubs, and wineries. My priority in every performance is to choose a set list that delivers the best possible experience for the audience and the occasion.
I perform solo with an acoustic-electric guitar and a loop pedal, from a catalog of 500+ cover and original songs spanning Top40, adult-contemporary, rock, country, R&B, and classics from the 60’s through today - and whether you’re looking for a warm, background musical presence or a lively, crowd-pleasing show, I bring professionalism, versatility, and a deep commitment to quality. I'm always happy to consult in advance to ensure the music perfectly matches your vision, and I’d love to speak with you about how I can help bring your event to life!
I am an independent singer/guitarist with a versatile catalog of 500+ cover and original songs spanning Top 40, adult contemporary, rock, country, R&B, and classics from the ’60s to today. After over 10 years performing across Southern California, I recently relocated to the Bay Area and am now booking performances throughout Northern California.
I have experience providing professional music at restaurants, private parties, weddings, venues, and corporate settings, and I always tailor my set list to fit the event. My performances feature simple renditions of classic songs as well as building creative renditions from the ground up, with live-looping and layered arrangements.
I have lots of equipment - 2 PA systems (including battery-powered for 5+ hours), microphones (including wireless), instruments, stands – everything that I need to put on a show. And when an in-house PA system is available, I'm happy to plug in and/or work with an audio engineer. I will rarely be limited by technical requirements, and can adapt my setup to fit nearly any that you provide!
