Gary Wooten Acoustic Guitarist from San Luis Obispo, CA

Cover songs may be an almost predictable offering from most artists performing on the popular club, winery, and event circuit, but audiences have never heard anything quite like this before. As a student of guitar for over 40 years, Gary has mastered a specialized sound and performance on an 8-string guitar, a hybrid instrument which combines both elements of a guitar and bass in one. Splitting half the strings to the bass, and the other to guitar, each sound is wired to its own amp, essentially playing the part of two instruments. New fans are awed and old fans have been treated to this phenomenon for the last 5 years as Gary represents both the bassist and guitarist for local award-winning band, Moonshiner Collective. Creating a fun, original, interactive, live music experience for everything from live music venues to wineries, weddings, restaurants, parties, and all in-between, Eight-String Guitarist Gary Wooten is the perfect enhancement to your next event. Book a traditional show with the set tailored to your preferences, or an interactive "All Request Show" featuring a 200+ song request list accessible by QR code and text-able from your phone; all songs performed “LIVE, WITHOUT A NET!” from memory, with no sheet music, charts, iPad... Gary is available for solo guitar performances or for those looking to kick it up a notch, duo shows featuring Moonshiner Collective bandmate Ryan House on drums.
