About
I have been performing in central Florida for more than 20 years. I am a classically trained musician from one of the most respected conservatories in the world, the Manhattan School of Music. I play the classical guitar repertory as well as Flamenco, Afro-Cuban, Latin American and Jazz music. I have professional PA equipment that allows me to play large events with hundreds of attendees to very intimate gatherings such as weddings or private parties.
Because of my extensive experience in the area I also have had the good fortune to have made the acquaintance of many talented musicians in Central Florida. This means that I can meet the needs of any event calling for a guitarist with another piece such as guitar & violin, guitar & flute, guitar & oboe, guitar & jazz singer or classical singer just to name a few. Larger ensembles can be formed on demand.
I have a strong work ethic and a love for music that makes me a trustworthy and reliable performer. I will personally consult with clients at no extra charge to ensure that their event has the right music to create the mood and ambiance they desire.

Wedding Reception
in Orlando, FL
on 03/30/2013
"Do NOT hesitate to choose Eddy for your special event! Not only did he totally nail two song requests but it was perfectly timed and beautifully arranged. Everything was amazing and I wish I could do it all over again! Thanks Eddy for making a special event magical! My new husband and I are over the moon!"

Birthday Party (Adults)

"Right from the start, I knew that Eddy was the person I was looking for. He was professiona & courteousl, asked questions about what specifically I was looking for, made great suggestions and assured me that this would be a memorable event for my Dad's 81 st Birthday party. He arrived on time, appropriately well dressed for the occasion. Eddy went above and beyond to entertain my dad and the guests. The Flamenco dancer encouraged my granddaughters to get up on stage to perofrm in the finale. This put a huge grin on my dad's face as he so proudly watched his great grandaughters perform for him. I would definitely recommend Eddy and Somos."

"Eddy was great to work with and is a fantastic talent! I wanted something different for my ceremony rather than a string quartet/violin or DJ playing music. We chose all of the classic wedding songs and they sounded AMAZING on a guitar! It was absolutely perfect. Unfortunately I did not get to hear Eddy's playing at all during our cocktail hour where he played some more upbeat music, but the guests said he was great! He can accommodate any request, and has played weddings before, so he knows the drill - no need to worry about him on the wedding day! Thank you Eddy!"

"Incredibly talented and professional. We used Eddy to play music for our beach wedding in Siesta Key and couldn't be happier with the choice. If you are having a beach wedding (or any wedding for that matter), I'd highly using Eddy. His classical guitar work doesn't add just the music, but also an aura of class and style to the beach wedding."

"Eddy was wonderful. I have always wanted to have a flamenco guitarist at a function of ours, and Eddy fulfilled that dream perfectly! He was very easy to work with before the event, and was just wonderful at our Christmas party. Many of our guests commented on his talent, and his sound system was great; perfect volume for the party. Thanks, Eddy!"

"We were so very impressed! Eddy Lugo was not only the consumate professional, he was also very responsive to each and every email I sent before the event. I would hire him in a minute, I HIGHLY recommend him without any hesitation whatsoever. His music for our daughter's wedding and dinner reception afterward was perfection. His talent and giftedness added so much to the ceremony and the dinner, we are all so very pleased that we chose him! I wish that I could give him HIGHER than 5's in each category!
Thank you, Eddy...you made a beautiful occasion that much more beautiful!"

"Eddy Lugo was exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. His music created an calming atmosphere that transported the guests to an exotic location. One guest commented that they were mesmerized by his finger-work. I sent requests that were not part of his repertoire and he perfomed them exquisitely. Many guests commented that he was fantastic and would like to hear him again. I hope to see him again at another venue. Please send me his schedule of events.

"Every review about Eddy is dead on!!! He is incredibly talented and played a perfect non-traditional repetoire for my small wedding. I even put him on the spot and asked him to play something spectacular and unplanned for my guests, which he did readily and beautifully. I can't say enough nice things about him and wholeheartedly recommend him for any and all events!"

"Eddy was an ideal performer. Not only was he excellent at his craft and a professional (on time/dressed appropriately, etc) he went above and beyond to also demonstrate he is also a man of character and values. Which in my book,ranks him very high in the short list of people i'd be honored to work with again. "

"From the very beginning, Eddy made this process easy, which was really calming right when we needed it. He pretty much was on auto-pilot, even though he had given us plenty of opportunity to make whatever specific needs known. His repertoire is really expansive, so my initial requests were easily accommodated. And Eddy thought of little things that we hadn't even considered, which made our wedding all the better. Thank you Eddy! -Frank & Maggie"

I had made a few request on specific styles of music and he was able to perform it beautifully. He's awesome!! Thank you Eddy."

"Eddy was a very gracious player. Unobtrusive and did not need pandering to.
He professionally organized himself and we were very impressed as our wedding was in the back garden and it was warm on July 5th 2008. All our guests were very impressed and commented to us about how perfect the setting was for his classic`playing.
We would heartily recommend him to anyone as you would not be disappointed, only delighted instead.
Thank you Eddy!"

"Eddy performed before and during our wedding ceremony in Winter Park. He did a fantastic job. He was flexible, versatile, and was very accomodating to the style of music I requested. He was one of the few performers we found that was willing to work with our singer for the wedding. Our soloist and Eddy talked on the phone and worked out the details of the performance. He made an extra effort to discuss the music and rehearse with her. She found him to be extremely good to work with, and a great talent. He was always available on the phone or email, to discuss details with me. I highly recommend Eddy for his talent, and for being so nice and easy to work with!"

He told us that he was unable to make the later time, but would happily recommend one of his colleagues to fill in for him. We were very happy with Eddy's willingness to accomodate us and help us when our plans changed. He was very polite and responsive to our calls and emails."

"Eddy Lugo went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfect. During our planning process, Eddy met with us to play several samples and guide us through our music selection for our ceremony and cocktail hour. On our wedding day, the ceremony was delayed twenty to thirty minutes due to several guests being stuck in traffic. This made me anxious and nervous, but Eddy relieved my worries by continuing to play for the guests who were patiently waiting and by staying to play until the cocktail hour was over. His music is beautiful and we received so many compliments. Thank you, Eddy, for helping create wonderful ceremony and cocktail hour! "
