Description of Music ?
Manny's music … "So satisfying it makes you want more!"
Better than Prozac! That's what  one listener commented as they left the coffee shop I was performing at. Soothing and refreshing are other descriptions that people have made regarding the effect of my guitar music. A Paso Robles winery hired me for her wine tasting event, because she heard that my music was "played from the heart."  It's my goal to complement every event that I perform at and I do this by performing my music with subtly and sparkle. The repertoire of music I perform has a classic quality to it that caters to a universal taste. My Guitar music is romantic but not syrupy, dynamic but not obnoxious, passionate and with purpose. From the composers of Spanish Classical era or Bossa Nova Jazz, Jazz Standards to Santana, Green day, Jack Johnson the spectrum of musical styles are boundless. However I always perform them with a sensitive touch to make your special event a resounding success .

Manny is an excellent musician first and foremost. He is also very professional, accommodating and punctual. I would highly recommend Manny Mestas for your next event. 

Manny was great! I wish my ceremony was longer so that I could listen to his playing more! He is so talented and learned 2 songs specifically for our ceremony. My guests also loved him! Totally recommend him for your next event!!
