Adam Baerd Ambient Guitarist from Boulder, CO

Folk, flamenco, fingerstyle -- anything the acoustic guitar can do, I explore and enjoy as much as possible. But here's the twist: all of the musical samples you see and hear on this page are 100% improvised compositions. Two decades of practicing, experimenting, theorizing, and playing with some of the best guitarists in the world have given me this odd ability, and now I can bring you the benefit of it all: personalized, one-of-a-kind, spontaneous music that you and I create together to make your celebration as unique as it is memorable. Your job is easy; all you have to do is give me three "seed" words or phrases for the atmosphere you'd like to create and I do the rest. These can be anything from "adventurous" to "classy & cozy" to "purple!" and I'll make it happen. This process keeps me present and involved with every note I play, and I promise that you and your guests will feel the difference. Can I learn and perform "traditional" songs? Of course, any song you like in any style: folk, flamenco, funk, pop, jazz, classical, bluegrass, bossa nova, you name it. We'll use these prearranged songs at key moments during your event for that special shot of magic. Life is all about contrast, after all. If you'd like to learn more, hear more, see more, anything like that, just reach out. I'm pretty darn friendly because playing guitar feels amazing and I do it all the time. Oh, I suppose I should introduce myself. My name's Adam Baerd. I've had a lucky life, and it shows in my music. I can't wait to share it with you.
