Description:

Clients often describe me as the musician who wows their guests while personalizing their events. I have a minimum fee of $500 for my solo performances, and if that matches your budget, I can create a custom quote for your special occasion.

I have a broad range of guitar music styles, including Latin American, Spanish, popular, and beyond. My repertoire features classical and flamenco guitar favorites, Gypsy Kings and Santana songs, Beatles hits, bossa novas, boleros, famous movie themes, jazz standards, and various renditions of current and older pop songs, which always impress guests. Additionally, I can accommodate up to three song requests.

As a performer, my training in diverse styles such as classical, Latin, flamenco, jazz, and rock has allowed me to share the stage with renowned musicians and international pop stars such as Little Anthony and the Imperials and Nestor Torres, as well as national tours with the Emmy Award-winning guitarist Benise. I have performed at high-profile weddings, dinners, award ceremonies, and private parties for political figures like former US Presidents, Senators, Supreme Court Justices, and A-list celebrities.

My corporate clients include Microsoft Latin America, Target, Capital One Bank, Ted Talks, The World Bank, League of Latin American Citizens (LULAC), The Four Seasons Hotels, Hyundai Hope-on-Wheels, The Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI), The U.S. Coast Guard, The Federal Reserve, Children's Hospital, Hispanic American Organization (HAO), Sherwin-Williams, the Rosewood Miramar, Paramount Pictures, DC United FC, and The Ritz-Carlton.

I also offer online guitar lessons, having taught for over two decades hundreds of people in styles ranging from jazz and classical to flamenco, as well as rock solos. Contact me for rates, and the first trial lesson will be free.

Amilcar was amazing for my wife's birthday celebration. His musical performance was outstanding, and he demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout the entire event. He exceeded our expectations by accommodating all our song requests and perfectly sticking to the party's theme. As a result, we plan to hire him again in the future.

Amilcar did an outstanding job! His music was a perfect fit for my sister's Echo Park wedding, seamlessly blending classical and contemporary pieces - from Suite No. 1 to Stairway to Heaven. We received numerous compliments after the ceremony, which is a testament to his immense talent. On top of that, he was a delight to collaborate with, a smooth communicator, and flexible with requests. We highly recommend him! Thank you so much, Amilcar!
