Introduction: JOE FREDD - MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT & MUSIC LESSONS
I am, primarily, a concert guitarist, but at the same time, a very versatile musician. I professionally play acoustic and electric guitar (Rhythm & Lead), bass guitar, Tres Cubano, ukulele, and piano/keyboard.
I offer the most exquisite music for all occasions and tastes, with a variety of musical ensembles, styles, and genres that can suit your needs and fit your budget.
I give classical concerts as a guitar soloist or integrating different musical formats such as Duets, Trios, String Quartets, Chamber Orchestras, and Symphonic Orchestras. When performing as a solo guitarist, I can play acoustic or electric guitar with playback. I play covers and my own compositions and arrangements. I can also play as a guitar accompanist for singers.
I've joined multiple popular musical formats, like covers bands and original bands, Jazz trios, and Rock, Blues, Country or Latin bands; playing rhythm or lead guitar (acoustic and electric), bass guitar, Tres Cubano guitar and piano/keyboard.
