About Me

Val Vasquez

I’m a part-time semi-professional musician primarily working as a solo acoustic guitarist/vocalist. I love a wide variety of music and I strive to transfer that love of good songs to the live solo format.

Live to play live…

I’ve been a part-time working musician here in Hawaii for most of my life. A guitar class taken in high school ignited my interest in music and and a quest for further guitar studies such as classical, basic theory and slack-key. Vocal lessons confirmed I’d never be a Frank Sinatra but ensured I wouldn’t get booed off of a stage! My journey and education continued over the years as a part of various bands of various genres such as rock, modern country, pop, high energy variety, local reggae and bar bands. Ultimately I believe I’ve finally found my niche as a solo performer. I love weaving all of the musical styles I’ve embraced over the years into a fun, energetic, solo acoustic style reflecting the passion I have for the island life I live.
