🍷Live Background Music for Receptions, Dinners & Social Events
The best cocktail-hour and dinner music adds atmosphere without taking over the event. My digital and acoustic accordion provides warm, sophisticated live music that allows guests to comfortably visit, dine, and enjoy the occasion.
My repertoire includes light jazz, romantic standards, familiar pop favorites, Italian and French melodies, Latin selections, and other recognizable music. With the digital accordion, I can also incorporate sounds such as piano, acoustic guitar, strings, jazz instruments, and orchestral voices—creating varied musical textures while maintaining the flexibility of a solo performer.
This style of live music is particularly well suited to cocktail hours, rehearsal dinners, anniversary celebrations, winery events, private dinners, corporate gatherings, and receptions throughout the Mendocino Coast.
