April 3, 2026Dalton was an incredible addition to our wedding! Everyone commented on how absolutely beautiful the music turned out and we couldn't agree more. Dalton is professional, kind, and an incredible musician. He made our wedding day truly magical. Leading up to the wedding he was communicative and adjusted to our needs more than once. He brought us both to tears on the day of and we can't wait to work with him again. Thank you Dalton. Our day was complete because of you!

My audience can expect to see raw emotion, vulnerability, passion and craftsmanship. Use of guitar for percussion. Looping of guitar to allow for solos over a rhythm recorded in real time. They can expect anything from soothing vocals to raw rock and roll high energy.
Dalton is a one-man band from Temple, Texas, whose musical journey began at the age of eight. His first guitar chord was taught to him by his babysitter, Lacey Sturm (then Lacey Mosley), years before she rose to fame as the frontwoman of Flyleaf. Dalton was also the boy in the window featured on Flyleaf's debut EP cover.
That childhood connection came full circle when Dalton opened for Lacey Sturm at three sold-out shows at the Anaheim House of Blues, performing in front of more than 1,500 people.
Influenced by artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Tom Petty, Jack Johnson, and Bill Withers, Dalton blends soulful vocals with dynamic guitar work in a versatile one-man-band performance. His repertoire spans classic rock, yacht rock, reggae, folk, and acoustic favorites, with a focus on music that uplifts, encourages, and brings people together. Whether performing originals or beloved classics, his goal is simple: to leave audiences feeling a little lighter, a little more hopeful, and genuinely connected.
No requirements. I have a Harbinger Tower so I need very little space. All I need is an outlet.
