ishoot308 · 06-18-2015, 07:26 AM

Can anyone recommend a good local guitar player / singer one man band kinda person who could play for a local private party. Looking for someone who does stuff like James Taylor, blues, soft rock, a little jazz maybe, etc, etc.

Thanks!

Kyle Nickerson! He's great! Plays at a lot of local restaurants and will be our "Busker Alley Friday" performer at The Winnipesaukee Playhouse tomorrow evening (complimentary pre-show entertainment on our outdoor stage prior to Jesus Christ Superstar). Come check him out if you'd like from 6:30-7-ish, open to the public, even if you're not seeing the show. Very talented and has his own music as well as a repertoire of favorites!

Paul Warnick....he is playing a Patrick's tonight if you want to audition him. He's very good.

I second Kyle Nickerson. Awesome. I don't think there is a song he doesn't know.

Eric Burke in Gilford is REALLY good !

He has a band but plays single gigs all-over NH.
He plays Acoustic & Electrc !

HIs band has played as opening act at Meadowbrook.

I know Eric personally, and he's a great entertainer.
If interested I will PM you his tel#.

Don't even know if he's around any more but years ago when we were catering we used Al Gould from Ashland. He plays violin and rather than playing from a stage he walks through the room interacting with all of the guests. People loved him.

ishoot308,

You have what I would call a Good Problem, as there is a lot of talent in the Laconia area. Have fun deciding on who to use.

Thanks,
Bill
