SOLO PERFORMANCE
Don Mancuso delivers an intimate, stripped-down performance with just his voice and acoustic guitar.

ACOUSTIC DUO
A step up in depth and harmony, Don pairs up with powerhouse vocalist Nicole Martin for a duo performance that blends soul, energy, and precision. With tight harmonies and dynamic arrangements, this format works beautifully for weddings, lounges, and smaller stages looking for a big sound without a full band.
ACOUSTIC TRIO
Want even more energy without going full volume? The trio format adds a third performer; either a second vocalist or a skilled percussionist to round out the sound and bring groove and rhythm to the room.
Great for mid-size venues, breweries, or special events that want a fuller sound and visual dynamic while still keeping it acoustic and intimate.

- Captain Fantastic & The Piano Man – High-energy celebration of two of the greatest songwriters and performers of all time, Elton John and Billy Joel.
