Scotty Swan's soulful acoustic / electric solo guitar DJ services , provide the perfect atmosphere for cocktail hour, wine tastings and any relaxing event. If you're like most folks, you know how hard it is to find the right for your event or venue. You don't want a loud band that will drown out conversation or that will give your guests a headache. You want a seasoned entertainer that's not only professional but also engaging. Someone who will break the ice, keep the energy flowing and create a welcoming environment. Does this sound like the type of musical entertainment you're looking for?
We had Scotty and Amy do an acoustic set for our son's graduation party and they were exactly what we were looking for! Great choice of songs and they were the perfect backdrop to the event. We had a storm roll in midway through, and they quickly adapted and didn't miss a beat. We received a lot of compliments from guests after the party about the job they did. Would definitely hire them again!
Just want to say a big thank you for doing such an amazing job! we are still receiving messages about how great you both were. Thank you for helping make our wedding day perfect. We will definitely recommend you to anyone who asks in the future.
Response from Swan 1-Man Band:

Can't say enough good things about the performance and communication leading up to the event.High energy which got the group dancing. I for one was rarely off the dance floor,even after a long day. Their song catalog( a mix of acoustic and electric songs) was perfectly matched to what we were looking for. Highly recommend. I hope we get to see them more often performing outside of private events!
Response from Swan 1-Man Band:
Thanks so much!

In a world where musical innovation knows no bounds, Scotty Swan stands out as a true pioneer. Armed with nothing but his guitar, a looper, and an iPad, Swan creates a sonic experience that defies convention and leaves audiences in awe.
From a young age, Swan showed promise, taking lessons with the legendary virtuoso Tony MacAlpine at the tender age of 8 back in 1984. Influenced by musical giants like Prince and Eddie Van Halen, Swan embarked on a journey that would lead him to become a trailblazer in the world of guitardom.
Before striking out on his own, Swan cut his teeth playing in punk bands, rock bands, and even his own cover duo, Moon Ripple Creek. But it was as a solo artist that he truly found his voice, producing a track for recording artist and American Idol alum Dezmond Meeks' 2013 release, "Cinderfella."
Performance Notes
Setlist: I'll be playing a mix of original songs and covers, with a focus on showcasing my looping skills. The setlist will include:
"TBD
Looping Setup: I'll be using a combination of pedal-based loops and digital loops to create a layered sound. I'll be layering guitars, adding percussion, and experimenting with different textures and effects.
Soundcheck: Please make sure to check the following:
Monitor levels: I'll need to be able to hear myself clearly on stage.
Guitar tone: I prefer a warm, clean tone with a bit of reverb.
Pedals: Make sure all the pedals are functioning correctly and that the delay and reverb are set to my liking.
Looper: Ensure that the looper is set to capture and play back the correct number of loops.

1 x Fender Telecaster (standard tuning)
1 x Fender Deluxe Reverb Amp
1 x Boss RC-3 Loop Station
1 x Digitech JamMan Solo Looper
