Hello there! I am a San Diego native who has been playing guitar and singing for about 10 years now. Having a talent that can bring others joy has been a tremendous blessing over the last decade. A few of my inspirations that shaped me into the musician I am today: Dave Matthews, Bill Withers, John Mayer, John Legend. I love taking covers and adding my own original twist to them. (Check a snippet of my cover of Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash in my Music Reel). I have a full compact setup perfect for indoor areas/ small - medium sized outdoor venues. I have enough material that I could play 4 45min sets without repeating a song. My reportoire is fairly eclectic and family friendly with a good mix of genres. A few of the artist I cover: Dave Matthews, John Mayer, Eric Clapton, Lady Gaga, Chris Stapleton, The Beatles, Elton John, Bob Marley, Adele, B.B. King, the list goes on. I very much look forward the possibility of playing at your establishment! Best, Freddie

Hello, and thanks so much for viewing my page! My name is Jason Graham, and I specialize in playing fun covers in a wide variety of genres, whether it be top 40, classic rock, folk or country. I have a wide variety in my set list, and can cater my shows too many different ages and styles. I have been lucky enough to travel the world playing music on cruise ships for the past few years, and am excited to make San Diego my new home. I utilize live looping to build up layers in my songs, and bring a one man band energy to all of my shows, but I can also strip it down and have a more traditional acoustic vibe if that is what the show calls for. I really appreciate the consideration, and can guarantee to bring professionalism and a fun time! Thank you!
