About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

I am a well-rounded Guitarist, Composer, and Musical Arranger with a great love for music. I have been playing guitar for most of my life. I play contemporary musical selections in what is called chord-melody style. It's a finger-style method that incorporates the song's melody, harmony, and bass line all played simultaneously which gives the song unique and satisfying musical tones. I believe the best music brings to mind people, places or things we love and lets your imagination run away with your dreams. I have spent years developing and experimenting to find a unique sound for the nylon string guitar. My live performance (please see "Song List"), includes arrangements of some of the most beloved and well-known classical compositions from the Great Composers as well as classic rock songs by Modern Composer Greats such as Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, Eagles, Beatles and many others. I also perform original music compositions found on my Companions of the Moon CD. All fine dining and intimate club setting owners / managers. I am also available to play for your establishment on a regular basis or can work out various dates open on your entertainment calendar. I provide just the right ambient sound for your patrons to enjoy. You won't be disappointed I assure you! Please check out my YOU TUBE CHANNEL search Under my name Philip DelGrosso for entertaining videos that accompany my original music. My entertainment venues and events that I specialize in: wedding ceremonies, corporate events, luncheons, cocktail hours, providing ambient music for fine restaurant dining, and street music (electricity must be supplied). The most important factor is that I successfully capture your musical vision for your event or business. Best Wishes, Philip DelGrosso ~ Guitarist / Composer

Review by Lisa C.

WeddingReviewed on September 11, 2018From Rochester, MI

Philip's sound and musical knowledge are exceptional, thanks to his decades of hard work and experience. He had a nice long list of music that we were able to choose from for our wedding pre-ceremony/ceremony/and cocktail hour. He was on time and his equipment sounded very nice. Many of our guests complemented us on the choice/style of music, so a big thanks goes to Philip. Our only complaints were that the ceremony/processional song timings could have been improved and his wardrobe choice for the event was too casual (even after mentioning it was formal-wear). Recommend insisting on attending rehearsals in the future.

Guitar Sensations:

Since there was no prior rehearsal I had to rely on the ceremony speaker for cues as I did not know the length of each part of the ceremony. The speaker instructed me to follow her cues which I did. I also made a special trip to the wedding couple's home to hand deliver my song list and receive the couples preferred songs and instructions on a paper document. Nowhere on the instruction sheet given to me did it mention "formal wear". Since it was outside on a warm summer day I dressed in dress shoes, dress pants, and a short sleeve collared button shirt to avoid sweating. I was also not compensated for my pre-event travel and meeting time with the wedding couple.

New Year's Eve PartyReviewed on January 2, 2018From West Bloomfield, MI

We hired Philip for a small New Year’s dinner with family and friends. His performance really made the night extra special. It was hard to find a performer for that night but Philip was very responsive, arrived ahead of time to set everything up and even played some extra songs for us. Thank you Philip!
