Imagine the energy of a modern day singer-songwriter performing a soulful fusion of popular music and timeless classics. I consider myself not only an acoustic performer, but a true storyteller. Drawing from my families roots in Charleston, SC; I strive to successfully conveyed an undeniable passion for music and culture, performing across the country for nearly two decades. My vocal style has been described as warm and smooth, with a repertoire that seamlessly crosses genres. I take pride in being a professional in every way. Let's work together to create an awesome, engaging experience!!

September 18, 2025Vince performed at my father’s 90th birthday celebration and was the perfect addition of music. We were in a big ballroom and my father is a musician and music lover, so live music was the only way to go. Vince was professional, arriving early as he’d planned and great to check in as needed throughout the evening. His music speaks for itself and what sold me in scheduling him - a very heartfelt soft rock including music both old and new. I’m a big Eric Clapton fan and was pleased to hear some of my favorite songs in his collection.

February 19, 2025Vince did a fantastic job performing at Cadence Huntersville! He told us some stories from his personal life that the residents could relate to as well as music. Vince is very talented! He was on time, stayed the whole hour, and had a very kind spirit. The residents laughed and sang along with him. We will happily book with him again!

Vince Rivers is a singer/guitarist that performs acoustic, soulful renditions of modern music; think “Music of John Legend and Jack Johnson sung in the soulful style of Bill Withers or Al Green.”– but infused with hints of blues, jazz & reggae. He has a very “Honest and Pure” approach to performing that creates an intimate and engaging experience for his listeners. His vocal style can be described as “warm, smooth, clean,” with a guitar style that perfectly compliments his voice, and musical arrangements that make classics sound new. His repertoire crosses genres that fuses modern, popular music with timeless, soulful jazz and blues.
