If you go out to your favorite local restaurant, chances are you have been entertained by one of the many acoustic guitarists performing in our area. With the tools that todays musician's have at their disposal, a solo performer only needs a smart phone to supply the backing tracks of a popular song, playing and singing with a virtual band. 

When you come to see Van Wyen, everything is performed live, at the moment. No backing or pre-recorded tracks. Using pedals and on-board effects, Van Wyen performs an eclectic mix of songs live! If you have had enough of running down the road and your load has been adequately  loosened, Check out Van Wyen for something different!  

"Went to see you at Sonoma Grill you sounded great, was very surprised when we heard a Joni Mitchel song I had to stand up to see who the female vocalist was and to my surprise in was you🤣 great rendition of the song Help me! Keep up the good work, when are you playing there again?" 

 Had a really nice dinner at the Sonoma Grill and heard you play a terrific opening set list. You had a GREAT sound and every song was enjoyable to listen to. Dinner and Great Music - a nice combo. Thanks so much for the entertainment - you  really have a "NICE SOUND" . Looking forward to seeing you a few more times over the summer. ENJOY!
