About Vendor
Learn more about this vendor for your event.
Hello, I’m Michael Battista, a Southern California–based guitarist, vocalist, and arranger specializing in Spanish guitar and contemporary Latin music. My performances offer a unique musical journey. One side of my repertoire celebrates the passionate rhythms and expressive melodies of Flamenco Rumba (Spanish Guitar), featuring selections made famous by artists such as Paco de Lucía, Jesse Cook, Ottmar Liebert, and the Gipsy Kings, to name a few. The other side takes beloved classics from artists such as The Beatles, Sting, Peter Frampton, Van Morrison, Chris Isaak, Bill Withers, Al Stewart, and many more, reimagining them in exciting new musical styles including Salsa, Cha-Cha-Cha, Bolero, Latin Jazz, and even modern EDM. Performing live guitar over my own custom produced backing tracks, I create a rich, full-band musical experience that ranges from romantic and intimate to sophisticated and relaxing, or upbeat and energetic. Whether performing at luxury hotels, restaurants, corporate events, or private celebrations, I tailor the music to suit the atmosphere and occasion. Vocals are also available upon request. Have a favorite song you'd love to hear? Just ask! I'll do my best to make it happen. Thank you! Michael Battista 818-821-9797
