Luis Coelho — Solo Guitarist Instrumental guitar shows: world tour, rock hits & acoustic for any event

For the headline shows, need an LED wall or a projector and screen with an HDMI connection, so the show’s visuals can play in time with the music. The acoustic set is much simpler: just a small corner and a power socket. Full tech rider provided on demand.

The stage or performance area, whether a screen or projector is available, the PA system (if the venue provides one) and the number of guests.

I only provide my own equipment.

For the headline shows, I normally arrive a few hours before the performance for setup and soundcheck, and the shows run for 45 minutes. For the acoustic set, setup takes about 15 minutes, and I usually play 3 x 30/45 minutes with a break.

The acoustic set works well outdoors, as long as I have shade or cover, a flat surface and a power socket nearby. The headline shows depend on visuals, so I recommend an indoor or covered venue, or an outdoor evening setting where the screen is clearly visible.

The headline shows are fully produced shows, so the music is set. The acoustic set is more flexible.
