Dan Nervo Guitar Solo guitarist performing popular hits from the 60s to current day

I need a performance space of 25 to 30 square feet, access to a power outlet, and an armless chair to sit in while performing.

Any special directions regarding where to load in equipment.

I bring all my own sound equipment, but no lighting equipment.

I am happy to provide Spotify playlists between my sets, including any kind of playlist requested by the client.

I performed in Ottawa, Canada with my Duran Duran Tribute. It was an open-air festival and we played for an audience of over 8,000 people.

I love playing all types of events, but my favorite is playing corporate holiday parties. I love the festive mood.

I've been playing guitar almost all my life and started gigging during college, with various bands. I've been doing solo acoustic gigs for the last 10 years, starting with country club gigs.

I've been influenced by guitarists from multiple genres. Edward Van Halen for rock, Prince for funk, Michael Hedges for original instrumental acoustic guitar, John Williams for classical guitar, and Stevie Ray Vaughan for blues/rock guitar. I also love Eric Johnson and Steve Vai. My favorite singer/songwriters would be Jeff Buckley and John Mayer.

I typically require an hour to set up before a performance. For most performances I do two 60-minute sets, with a short break in between. I am happy to play longer or shorter, depending on what the client wants.

I am happy to play outside but I ask for shade, a flat level surface and access to a power outlet.

I can learn specific songs before the event, but I usually limit this to 4 songs. The clients are welcome to pick songs from my repertoire or let me choose the music for them.

Previous clients have described me as having a versatile repertoire and creating a sophisticated and enchanting atmosphere that perfectly complements the event.

I play pop, jazz, rock, country, folk, and classical music.
