Overview

My name is Steve Pruyn, I’m a local musician from South Shore, MA. I play guitar, sing, and play most kinds of drums. I am 30 years of age and have been playing in bands for 20 years. I’m looking for gigs of any sort- concert, party, nursing home/hospital, school, restaurant, or just because!
I can offer solo guitar/singing performance, hand drum performance.
I can offer 2 person “duets” - singing drums and guitar, singing guitar and bass, drums and dancing, or guitar and guitar!
We also have a full rock band that can perform classic rock covers and originals.
If any of this interests you then please reach out to me!

What's up in Bridgewater? Straight Up

Perhaps some of the greatest musicians to come out of the Bridgewater area. I recommend going to check them out if you like to dance. Lots of energy, very unique sound.

What to expect

When we come out to play your party you can expect:

Seasoned professionals with a positive attitude.

1-3 sets of cover/original songs with killer guitar solos, songs to dance to, and a couple tunes that hit close to the heart.

Depending on this size of room/intensity of party we can play louder or quieter, and the option for acoustic or electric drums are available. Electric can be significantly quieter and allow for us to rock out in a small room without destroying ear drums.

Versatility is one of our strong points- whether you are looking for a high-energy rock gig or something a little more smooth and intimate, we are receptive and enjoy figuring out how to meet your needs.

If you are looking for a strictly classic rock or country cover band, you may be upset to hear us sneak in funk, blues, and americana styles. As such, we may not be the band for you. We like to switch it up and try to play something for everybody, and we love to play something you may not expect or have even heard before.

We need about 2 hours to set up and soundcheck, and about an hour to break down after the concert. Along with rehearsal, load up, and transportation, we end up dedicating well over 10 hours to make a concert happen. This is why we ask for 600$ minimum:

We will clean up after ourselves and make sure to leave the place how we found it.

We will have to discuss set up logistics based on:

How much space is required

Acoustics of the desired place of performance

Power/electrical access

Access loading from vehicle to “stage”

Lastly, expect the unexpected from our performance. If we don’t delightfully surprise you, then we haven’t done our job!
