"Makes the guitar sound like two guitars and a piano" - BBC Southern Counties

Classical guitarist Geoff Smith is available for weddings, functions and concerts in the South East of England. He has many years of experience at providing background music for weddings and events. Born in 1972, Geoff started the guitar at the age of 11, making a living entirely from his music by the age of 18 whilst travelling in Europe as a street musician.

"Geoff played almost continually for the entire evening at a sound level that nicely filled the background and we would recommend him to anyone who wants to have sophisticated live music for a commercial or private event." - PF Cope, Marketing Manager, Honda

Geoff specialises in performing classical music from Spain and Latin America, and can create a beautiful ambience for your wedding or function. He is also available for Spanish themed events, dinner parties and restaurants.

“A sensitive player” - Bath Chronicle

As a guitarist he studied under classical guitar Paul Gregory (winner of the International Segovia Prize), and has had tuition from Gilbert Biberian, Gary Ryan, Roberto Aussell and Roland Dyens. He also has a diploma in Jazz, has studied with acoustic guitarist Eric Roche and has released 2 classical solo CDs. His next recording will feature his own compositions for solo guitar.

"Geoff Smith has regularly entertained our guests in our Dining Room. He has also performed at wedding receptions and during the festive season. Whenever he plays I always receive many favourable comments about his music and the quiet and unobtrusive manner with which he entertains our guests. I have always found him to be extremely professional." - Graeme Coles, Shelleys Hotel, Lewes
