About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Thank you for looking into having live music for your event. My name is Bruce Brill. I'm a singer/guitarist/writer and live in Oakland, California. I play music and teach guitar around the Bay Area including San Francisco, Berkeley, San Jose, Marin, Sacramento and Napa. I cover all styles of music from classical and jazz to pop, rock, Latin and flamenco. When I'm not performing a gig, I play weekends at a restaurant in the Piedmont area if you wish to meet and hear me play. I also perform stand-up around the Bay Area and incorporate comedy with music if the client feels it suitable for the occasion. I tailor every event to the client's wishes making it special and memorable for them and their guests.

Review by Jeanne A.

Private PartyReviewed on June 3, 2024From Corte Madera, CA

This was the third time we've hired Bruce Brill to play music at an event. He's always organized; shows up early for setup; plays at just the right sound level; makes sure the music is appropriate; has an extensive list of music that he performs, and is, simply stated, a great addition to any event!

Bruce Brill:

Hi Jeanne & John, Thank you so much for sending the Bash this great review! I know the two of you are very busy & taking the time means a great deal to me. Also, having me provide live music for your events shows me you care & want to make all your parties very special. And, having me a third time! An extra thanks for that! Have a great summer, take care, Bruce

WeddingReviewed on May 29, 2024From Murphys, CA

Bruce was so easy to work with, even with our last minute changes. He played exactly what we wanted, and is a true professional. We are so glad to support a talented artist, and to have him play for our wedding! We hope to have an excuse to have him play for something in the future!

Bruce Brill:

Hi Jenna & Scott, Thank you so much for taking the time to send in this exceptionally complimentary review! I know you two are very busy & to take the time to send the review means a great deal to me. Thanks again for selecting me to provide live music & be a part of your beautiful wedding at Ironstone Winery. Take care, Bruce
