James Duchon

Allow me to set the ambiance for your private party, corporate event, restaurant, hotel, banquet, wedding, or country club with music that is soft, soothing and romantic. I am a classically trained guitarist with sixteen years experience. I attained my bachelors degree in music education from the University of Toledo in Ohio. While pursuing my degree, I studied classical guitar under the guidance of Amy Brucksch (Dept. Director). I have attended National Guitar Workshop master classes in Connecticut that featured the amazing Sergio and Odair Assad, Antigoni Goni, and Nathaniel Gunod. I have attended the International Guitar Workshop at Stetson University in DeLand, FL where Oscar Ghilia performed and gave a master class. Also, I have taken private lessons from Jeff LaQuatra. I currently reside in Edgewater, FL where I perform at many local venues. In addition to playing guitar, I also sing and DJ. You may find my DJ webpage if you scroll to the bottom of this page.

• Working with James was a fantastic experience. He was friendly, talented and professional. Many people have remarked about how nice the music was since the wedding and we would definitely recommend him. -- Ben H, Orlando, FL, 6/14/2008
• James was a blessing for my son's wedding ceremony. The wedding venue was in Cocoa Beach, Fl. I don't know anyone who lives there so when I found James on GIGMasters and he agreed to play classical guitar I was very excited. His professionalism and talent was exactly what I wanted to set the mood for a beautiful beach wedding. He was so cooperative with every detail; from our first meeting in Orlando to select the music, to the wedding rehearsal in Orlando, to learning and rehearsing the piece for the vocal duet an hour before the ceremony, to setting up microphone and speakers on a deck at the beach. It was perfect! Thank you James and GIGMasters. -- Sandra W, Cocoa Beach, FL, 3/16/2008
• James was a true pleasure to work with. He was very accomodating and put up with me chaning my mind on a daily basis. I received so many compliments from my guests on his talent. I'm so happy we found him and hope one day we can use him again!!! -- Amanda J, Winter Park, FL, 12/9/2007
