Don Brennan

I'm Don Brennan and I play instrumental acoustic guitar music specializing in the percussive finger style reminiscent of Michael Hedges. To enhance your event, I provide a musical ambiance in a wide variety of styles where accompanying vocals would not fit. I've been performing for more than 30 years at venues that include The Coach House, BB Kings, The Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts, The Henry Fonda Theater, Coto de Caza Country Club, Orange County Wine Society, fine dining establishments, wine bars, weddings and private parties. Along the way, I've been fortunate enough to win some awards that include the Grand Prize at the First Annual Gathering of Artists, Best Acoustic Artist at The Star Music Awards and have been nominated for Best Acoustic Artist several times at the Orange County and Inland Empire Music Awards. I also carry full liability insurance.

• He played exceptionally well. Song selection was to the customers liking and my staff was impressed. -- Mike F, Pasadena, CA, 8/22/2010
• Don Brennen was very polite and cordial from the very first time I spoke wih him on the phone. He was prompt and very professional in all that he did. His talent is amazing and he has a very unique style in his guitar playing. His amp was not too loud therefore leaving the party goers an easy time for conversation. He was fabulous and I would highly reccommend him to anyone who wants great background music...fabulous in all aspects!! I will defineately use him again for sure! He even wore a Hawaiian shirt to accomidate the Hawaiian BBQ theme that was going on. Very nice!! Sylvia - Chino, CA -- Sylvia H, Chino, CA, 6/25/2011
• Don was amazing. On time, punctual, well prepared and very professional.We booked him last minute but I loved his music and the style of guitar he plays. His attitude was amazing even though we had a slight faux pas with our electrics in which he carried the slight like it was no big deal and I am much appreciative for this. We have a very upscale and affluent clientele who gave me positive comments all evening on the entertainment. I would definitely re hire him and recommend him for anyone serious about making the right impression for a successful event. -- Valarie A, Newport Beach, CA, 7/27/2011
