Overview

One guitar. Infinite sound. Live, looping, and flowing like a DJ set.

An instrumental journey through global rhythms and melodies - from intimate to full-bodied, danceable energy - that adapts to the space, the audience, and the moment - crafting a sound alive and perfectly in tune with its surroundings.
Ideal for private events, weddings, corporate gatherings, and gallery openings, music moves seamlessly from one vibe to the next - no backing tracks, just live musicianship and real-time creativity.

Also available as part of Red Sahara Collective in duo or full-band formats.

Vita was fabulous for our Bleecker Street block party! We have a store specializing in Kenyan dresses and he has a lovely range, including West African music. He was sweet and courteous, even came early to set up and stayed a bit later than we had booked him for. We can't recommend him highly enough.

What to expect

Hiring Vita brings guests on a tasteful, uninterrupted journey around the world on a single acoustic guitar. His repertoire spans Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, India, the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and Western classics—Flamenco, Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Classical, Blues, and French chansons.

Performing like a live DJ set, he seamlessly transitions from one piece to the next, keeping the music flowing without pause. The performance can stay intimate and elegant or evolve into dance-friendly energy as the moment calls.

Vita offers a compact, professional setup: one chair, one outlet, punctual arrival, and elegant presentation. He can also pair with a singer, percussionist, or full band (see the duo with Red Sahara here: <a href="https://www.gigsalad.com/external/redirect/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lnc2FsYWQuY29tL3JlZHNhaGFyYV8tX2xpdmVfdGhlX21pcmFnZV9uZXdfeW9ya19j">https://www.gigsalad.com/redsahara_-_live_the_mirage_new_york_c</a>) to expand the experience for larger events.
