B.G. McPike's Acoustic Elegance: Music for Weddings

Dr. B.G. McPike, Acoustic Music Specialist For Individuals and Event planners: Let me guide you one step closer to the planning of your dream event.

I am filling a specialized niche for those who desire the most elegant and professional live acoustic music for their indoor or outdoor wedding, party, or banquet. I have left a trail of delighted couples since playing my first wedding reception as a teenager in 1983 in Indianapolis. Since then I have performed at hundreds of wedding ceremonies and/or receptions - and I have performed for countles

s local, regional, national, and international events from the USA to Spain - to Thailand. The main offerings are as follows: 1) solo classical/acoustic guitar; 2) guitar with other small combinations including with mandolin (National Champion mandolinist), violin, vocalist, Irish/Celtic whistle, or flute; 3) string quartet or trio; 4) acoustic jazz/swing/blues/pop combo (with or without vocals); 5) Folk/Celtic duo or trio. I thoroughly love working with people to plan their special events, as they will be taking such memories with them through their lifetimes. I tailor the music to your individual situation.

If you want your event to be different in a way that is newer, fresher, and truly creative, then what can be better than original music? Nostalgia is nice sometimes, but we can help you create your own musical memories!
I can compose music for your event.
