Diogo Andrade

I play guitar for 20 years and like to play many different styles of music. I learned the classical when young, them learned electric guitar still in Brazil. After returning to music school in Grossmont I starded to diversify into HAwaiian Slack Key and folk western fingerstyle. Artist like Keola Beamer, Tommy Emmanuel, Daniel Ho and John Mayer were in my list of favorites. Bossa Nova and Brazilian MPB is another passion, and being from Rio is hard to turn your back to the wonders of my homecountry.
I like to play intrumental and also with vocals. Depending on the situation certain styles fits better than others. Please check my videos on youtube ( search Diogo Andrade guitar lessons).

• Diogo was very personable and professional. I had some special requests and he more than took care of them. Everyone was really impressed and he added a lot to my wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend Diogo as a solo guitar performer. -- Douglas V, Encinitas, CA, 4/2/2011
• Mr. Andrade is a very professional and talented musician. He went above and beyond our expectations. The planned event was a very small and intimate ceremony, but Diogo made ensured that it was unforgettable. He drove over an hour to perform for me and my wife for a gig that took no more than 20 minutes. His musical abilities were astounding;he even brought an extra instrument to cater to the unique sound of music I was looking for. He was very punctual, affordable, and respectable. He is a highly professional artist that I would recommend to anyone without hesitation for any event, big or small.- Capt M,US Marines -- Chris M, Camp Pendleton, CA, 4/28/2011
